CALL FOR PAPERS: Esferas Literarias nº 7 (2024)
Monograph: The monstrous mother in Literature
Abstract:
The William James Society (WJS), in conjunction with William James Studies, would like to announce that it will be offering its annual Young Scholar Prize to the young scholar (within five years of the Ph.D.) who submits the essay that best explores the thought and work of William James.
The prize will include: (1) the opportunity to read the paper during the WJS session at the meeting of the Society for the Advancement of American Philosophy in March 2025, (2) $750 to subsidize travel to that meeting, and (3) publishing the paper in William James Studies.
We invite manuscripts of scholarly articles (4000-6000 words) on any of the following: Bram Stoker, the novel Dracula, the historical Dracula, the vampire in folklore, fiction, film, popular culture, and related topics.
Submissions should be sent electronically (as an e-mail attachment in .docx). Please indicate the title of your submission in the subject line of your e-mail.
Please follow MLA style.
Contributors are responsible for obtaining any necessary permissions and ensuring observance of copyright.
Manuscripts will be peer-reviewed independently by at least two scholars in the field.
Copyright for published articles remains with the author.
In this roundtable session, we invite presenters to share their work in French or in English pertaining to science fiction, speculative fiction and fantasy in texts, film, or comics originally published in the French language. These narrative genres are often ways to comment on social change by placing characters in other contexts through world-building or imagined interactions between humans and non-human entities.
Please consider submitting papers to Visualizing Hidden Meanings: Symbolism and Cryptography in the Writings of Thomas Harriot and Galileo Galilei.
This workshop provides an excellent platform for scholars to share their latest findings and insights in the early modern history of science. The deadline for paper submissions has been extended to April 25.
We welcome submissions on a wide range of topics related to Thomas Harriot and Galileo Galilei. Whether you're presenting current research, innovative methodologies, or theoretical frameworks, we want to hear from you.

VOICES OF PALESTINIAN LIBERATION
PAMLA Conference
7-10 November 2024 in Palm Springs, California
Session Format: Panel of 3-4 presenters, 15-20 minutes each and a 30-minute group Q&A afterward
This panel centers the literary and artistic expressions of Palestinians by exploring how writers, artists, journalists, historians, and activists navigate themes of abject loss, violence, and trauma; the aim is to offer a multifaceted perspective on the Palestinian experience, one that transcends problematically uncomplicated narratives and foregrounds the power of language and media in shaping identity, fostering solidarity, and demanding justice.
« The Translator at Work: Neutrality in Translation and Interpreting »
Translators and interpreters are expected to be neutral mediators who facilitate dialogue and enable understanding and cooperation between speakers who do not speak the same language. Research has shown, however, that the transfer of information from one language to another is rarely performed without making certain contributions that go beyond the mere rendition of the message being transferred. Translation is a product of cross-cultural interactions that requires linguistic and at times, sociopolitical or even ideological changes.

A Trans-Disciplinary Conference
31 Oct – 2 Nov 2024

Edinburgh, Scotland
As an interdisciplinary academic field devoted to examining and critiquing the social, cultural, and historical constructions of masculinity, masculinity studies explores how masculinity is defined, performed, and experienced across different societies and time periods. This field intersects with various disciplines, including sociology, gender studies, psychology, cultural studies, and history, among others. This often leads to the absence of dedicated departments or research centres in academic institutions focusing exclusively on masculinity studies which, in turn, makes it challenging to enable productive dialogues among disciplinary boundaries.

The 121st Annual Pacific Ancient and Modern Language Association (PAMLA) Conference, Palm Springs, California, USA, Nov. 7-10, 2024
Abstract: Medieval Literature will study multiple aspects of medieval literature, with special consideration for work that engages with the conference theme, "Translation in Action." This panel welcomes a broad interpretation of the theme as it relates to Medieval literature as well as the field of medieval studies itself.
