Call for Book Chapters on Discourse, Meaning, and Understanding
Discourse is a term that yields several meanings to academics in the human and social sciences. It is often used to describe a formal and/or informal way of text and talk, which seeks to empower some social groups and subordinate others in the social world. This definition might sound hasty at first sight in as much as discourse per se came to signify multiple forms of knowledge, systems of thought, and perhaps most important of all, the beliefs and attitudes people hold about life, death, (co)existence and the like.

LANGUAGE, LITERATURE, AND DIALOGUE
GITAM School of Humanities and Social Sciences (GSHS) Bengaluru is pleased to announce the organization of its first international conference, "Modernities Redefined: Perspectives from South Asia," to be held on February 22nd & 23rd, 2024, at GITAM, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India.
The relation between ethics and literature became a topic of intense academic debate at the end of the twentieth century—at a time, that is, when that relation was no longer self-evident after the challenges of postcolonial, feminist, and deconstructive critique. Humanist proponents of literature’s role as an empathy engine (Nussbaum, Rorty) entered into conversation with theorists who took inspiration from the work of Jacques Derrida and Emmanuel Levinas to valorize literature as a site of singular otherness—as an occasion of ethical encounter rather than moral instruction (Attridge, Eaglestone, Miller).

The Girlhood Studies Collective, in collaboration with the Department of Childhood Studies and the Gender Studies Program at Rutgers University-Camden, invite proposals for “The Mundanity of Girlhood,” a virtual symposium to be held April 4-6, 2024.
This panel invites researchers to consider how African American writers deploy humor within what critics have termed the “post-soul,” “post-Black,” “Black post-Blackness,” and “New Black Aesthetic” movements. Derek C. Maus, in Post-Soul Satire (2014), notes that the propensity for Black satirists to turn their critiques inward at the Black community rather than outwardly toward white institutions marks a key shift from ‘soul’ to ‘post-soul’ aesthetics.
