It is widely known that ideologies of racism, nationalism, and xenophobia are dangerous and spread all over the world. We want to examine these terms as much as possible, from many perspectives and variable aspects: in politics, society, psychology, culture, and many more. We also want to devote considerable attention to how the phenomena of racism, nationalism and xenophobia are represented in artistic practices: in literature, film, theatre or visual arts.

Edited Volume on Can I Believe?: Postcolonial Religiosity in the Post-Truth Era
Edited by Fardun Ali Middya & Md Ujan Ahmad
This in-person roundtable invites creative writing instructors to reflect on current challenges and opportunities in teaching the art and craft of poetry, fiction, non-fiction, and drama.
At a time when the humanities face increasing scrutiny, creative writing courses remain spaces where students actively engage in imaginative thinking, narrative experimentation, and the articulation of personal and collective experiences. But how do we design workshops and other course structures that are inclusive, innovative, and responsive to our students' needs and voices?

Overview -
Since his debut inFantastic Four #48, the Silver Surfer has become an integral part of Marvel Comic’s sprawlinguniverse. In his six-decade existence, the character has been featured in merchandise and Marvel’s transmedia properties, including cartoons, movies, video games, and podcasts.
While there exists a smattering of academic research on the Silver Surfer, this edited collection welcomes differing perspectives on thischaracter. We welcome contributions from different disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives, including comics studies, film and media studies, communication, theology, literary criticism, and so on.
Écocritique Agricole: Tracing the Furrows of Farming in French and Francophone Literatures Tilling through the writings of Rousseau, Derrida reminds us in his Of Grammatology that writing and agriculture share a common origin. It is agriculture and the resulting sedentarization of our societies, he argues, that first opened nature to culture and to our writing upon it. Derrida goes so far as to compare writing to cultivation in the agricultural sense: “it is a matter of writing by furrows. The furrow is the line, as the ploughman traces it.” It makes sense, then, that the French “délirer,” meaning to babble, takes root in the Latin delirare, to veer from a furrow.

Decolonization & Global Justice
22nd, 23rd, 24th of January, 2026
University of Oregon
Eugene, Oregon
Call For Participation
Decolonization and Global Justice will be a three-day, transdisciplinary conference that brings together decolonial, postcolonial, anticolonial, Indigenous and anti-imperial feminist perspectives on contemporary global crises.
This session seeks to explore the intersections of embodiment and environment in the Middle Ages, considering how bodies—organic and inorganic, human and non-human, material and immaterial—constitute, shape, and envelop one another. By “naturing” bodies, we seek to erode neat divisions between humans and the natural world to uncover the earthy entanglements linking humans to the environments they shape and are shaped by. Attuning to John Scotus Eriugena’s claim that nature is the name “for all things, for those that are, and those that are not,” we invite papers that reflect on the fundamentally relational ontology of humans, non-humans, and environments.
CFP Performing Wilderness Volume
<DEADLINE EXTENDED>
The wilderness appears to be a place devoid of theatre. As perhaps the most social of artistic forms, theatre and performance seem to sit in opposition to the solitude of wilderness, natural areas supposedly untouched by human activity. That is, wilderness and the performing arts are often thought as part of separate spheres, opposites even, situated firmly on either side of the imaginary divides between “nature” and “culture.”
