Scope & Topics
This accepted PAMLA special session panel explores memory and oblivion as they relate to queer culture and literature of the modern Hispanic world. Focusing on Latin America, Spain, and the global Hispanophone in the eighteenth through twentieth centuries, the panel explores practices of remembrance, commemoration, censorship, and forgetting both in queer culture (i.e., as practiced by queer individuals and groups) and of queer culture (in a broader cultural ecosystem). How have queer people sought to memorialize their predecessors and bequeath their legacy to future generations? How have these practices interacted with more expansive societal forces that alternately commemorate, silence or marginalize queer culture?
Critical Plant Studies, a book series published by Bloomsbury Academic, is seeking proposals for books that re-examine in fundamental ways our understanding of and engagement with plants, drawing on diverse disciplinary perspectives.

Alfred Hitchcock's 1958 film Vertigo is considered a staple in American cinematic history. For decades, Vertigo has been the subject of study by many film scholars, peeling back the intricate layers of the technicolor thriller. This panel invites all papers on Vertigo whether it is about the film's placement in Hitchcock's auteurism, the film's relation to the city of San Francisco, or an entirely new layer that has yet to be fully discussed.
Sir Francis Bacon and Thomas Hobbes are associated with the phrase, “Knowledge is power,” articulated by both writers about four centuries ago.
This roundtable serves as a direct continuation of "Navigating Graduate School," from last year's PAMLA conference in Palm Springs. One of the most mystifying parts of graduate school that can seem intimidating to a prospective student is what happens after your qualifying exams. You're done with coursework. You've gone through your qualifying exams. You are now considered 'All-But-Dissertation,' or ABD. What happens? While graduate handbooks will helpfully detail requirements for dissertations, prospectus meetings, etc., the experience of navigating the terrain between qualifying exams and the job market can feel abstract.
International Conference on Food Studies:
"Culinary Evolutions"
London/Online: 9-10 August 2025
Deadline for proposals: 30 May 2025
Conference website: https://food.lcir.co.uk
Food is a basic foundation of culture and society, it is vital to our health and well-being and it plays a significant role in our everyday creative engagement with nature. The shifts in activities surrounding food acquisition, preparation and consumption are not only essential for learning a culinary tradition but for examining a broader societal change.
In their introduction to Mothers in Children’s and Young Adult Literature: From the Eighteenth Century to Postfeminism (2016), Karen Coats and Lisa Rowe Fraustino observe that “[w]hether living or dead, present or absent, sadly dysfunctional or happily good enough, the figure of the mother carries an enormous amount of freight across the emotional and intellectual life of a child” (3).

Scope
This session explores how postcolonial and diasporic literatures grapple with memory, trauma, and cultural haunting. Rather than thinking of identity as fixed or linear, selfhood is complex and palimpsestic due to colonial violence, migration, and historical erasure. This session invites papers that analyze how characters or narratives navigate misremembering, inherited trauma, or overwritten histories to reclaim belonging and agency. Topics may include narrative voice, transgenerational memory, silence, storytelling, and archival gaps in multiethnic and immigrant literatures. This session welcomes interdisciplinary approaches and encourages work on Asian American, Black, Indigenous, and other diasporic communities.
Gothic writers embrace the genre for its inclusive and representational nature. The genre is, in effect, a palimpsest as it prominently features both the past and memory. The creators in the genre continue to create plots that center on women, queer, transgender, and racialized characters and create stories that address societal inequalities. The environment (the Ecogothic) also continues to be a prominent character in the genre.

Spiced Histories: Cartographing Food, Culture, and Conflict in South Asia
Food is never just about sustenance. It is a charged cultural text, a site of memory and mourning, a marker of identity, a terrain of negotiation, and often, a weapon of exclusion or resistance. In South Asia—a region defined by deep pluralities, histories of colonialism, persistent socio-economic inequalities, and enduring spiritual traditions—food emerges not merely as a necessity, but as a powerful index of social structure, affective life, and ideological formation.
The narrative of women in Indian print culture reflects a dynamic interplay of struggle and achievement, where, despite significant contributions, women's voices were frequently marginalized, and societal expectations and institutional barriers often constrained their roles. This complex history underscores the ongoing need for a more inclusive historical narrative that fully acknowledges the diverse and critical roles women have played
in shaping print culture in India.
UPDATE: DEADLINE FOR ABATRACTS EXTENDED TILL 31ST OF DECEMBER.
NOTE: WE ARE NO LONGER LOOKING FOR PROPOSALS RELATING TO "MUKKABAAZ".
This call for papers seeks one specific chapter on Medusa for a volume intended for the series, Villains and Creatures.
Each chapter of the volume is intended to be an overview of depictions of Medusa in specific kinds of media; nevertheless, the arguments/theses of each chapter should still be original, using past works and research to develop a current (new) perspective on Medusa.
The chapter needed involves Modern Drama.
Chapters will be due in October 2025. Chapters should be approximately 5,000 to 6,500 words, with Chicago-style endnotes and a bibliography page.

Politics and Leadership, Leadership Studies and Politics
Politics and leadership: two subjects that are commonly known, yet also deeply misunderstood. Politics is not merely the activities of official decision-makers and the ideas (and people) that give rise to them, but also, more broadly, how human groups determine who gets what (and under what circumstances—by consent or coercion). What if leadership is not entirely a person or position? Perhaps, leadership is a negotiation— a complex moral relationship between people that is predicated on role agreement. We might say, then, that leadership is a dynamic process that cannot be separated from the politics of human groups. Leadership, in this way, is very fundamentally political.
