Call for Papers: 2nd James Bond Studies Conference

11th July 2025

Virtual/Online

In association with the International Journal of James Bond Studies and the Centre for Society, Culture, and Social Change in the School of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences, the University of Roehampton will host a 1-day virtual conference on Friday 11th July 2025.

In a book chapter published in 2015, Professor Emma Smith reflected that while “only the writing partnership with John Fletcher at the end of Shakespeare’s career is known to have lasted beyond a single play ... [Thomas] Middleton may yet emerge as a more significant collaborator. In addition, Middleton’s own plays show him to be a creative and responsive early reader and reviser of the older playwright’s work” (297).

The Educators' Alliance Caucus is sponsoring two guaranteed panels for the upcoming American Studies Association Annual Meeting in San Juan, Puerto Rico, November 20-22, 2025. 

1. Roundtable: Recent Research on Social Justice Pedagogy and Teaching

 Women in German ConferenceNovember 6-9, 2025University of Massachusetts Amherst – Amherst, MA As part of the 50th anniversary of Women in German, this panel is interested in how the material of the past can be transformed into an unexpected, whimsical, and radical future(s) by feminist intervention. It is about past things created anew with revolutionary consequences. We are interested in papers discussing literary adaptations from, between, and into film, television, theater, and other ‘modern’ media which provide a feminist or queer lens to the source text. Feminist and queer adaptations can both enrich an existing text while rejecting to utilize heteronormative, patriarchal, colonial languages that uphold oppressive institutions.

Fifty years ago Hélène Cixous inspired women to be courageous, expressive, and vocal. Since the publication of her groundbreaking article, ‘The Laugh of Medusa,’ we have undoubtedly made great strides in encouraging women from around the globe to tell their stories in literature, art, academia, film, television, and via a great many of new media. Women’s writing has blossomed, challenged, rebelled, and gained much more visibility as a form of expression, a creative force, and a field of research, giving us many reasons to celebrate this moment in history, even if the current political climate sometimes limits our feelings of hope.

Philosophy and its Form

Throughout its history, philosophy has appeared in myriad forms: Plato’s dialogues; Montaigne’s Essais; Nietzsche’s aphorisms; Rosa Luxemburg’s Public Lectures; Simone de Beauvoir’s journalism, travelogs, and novels; Aimé Césaire’s dramas; and Fred Moten’s poetry collections. This is before we recognize the variety of styles employed by philosophers within more traditional essay forms: Benjamin’s critical biographies of Baudelaire, Deleuze’s Plateaus, and W. E. B. DuBois’ interpolation of musical passages in The Souls of Black Folk.

Book proposals are invited for a series called Gender and Culture in the Romantic Era, published by Anthem Press (http://www.anthempress.com/). Gender and Culture in the Romantic Era is a series of scholarly monographs and edited collections devoted to the topics of gender and culture in British poetry, fiction, and drama from roughly 1780 to 1830. In terms of gender, the series encompasses scholarship related to the lives and works of women writers but also includes studies that address broader constructions of gender identity and sexuality.
