 The Northeast Popular Culture Association (NEPCA) will host its 2025 annual conference this fall as a virtual conference from Thursday, October 9th, to Saturday, October 11th, 2025.

This panel will trace the connections between production, reproduction, and world-making in twentieth and twenty-first century literary, cinematic, legal, and medical texts. Scholars of biopolitics, nationalism, and reproduction such as Tanika Sarkar, Banu Subramaniam, and Kalindi Vora have noted that reproduction is fundamentally a postcolonial problem in that it sheds light on the anxieties entrenched in imperial and postcolonial nationalisms. That said, when seen from the perspectives of capital, labor, and affect, we know that reproduction happens in quiet and banal fashions—reproduction of feelings, of habits, of desires, of work, of cultures, and of ideas.

Joan of Arc has long been a muse to musicians, inspiring operas (Verdi, Tchaikovsky) musicals (Goodtime Charley) sung mystery plays (Claudel & Honneger), ballads (Leonard Cohen, Arcade Fire) and pop culture parodies such as the rap battle between Miley Cyrus and the Maid. Her story has also been powerfully related en muet in early silent films. This panel investigates the “sound effects” of Joan’s story, considering the roles of music, speech, silence, voices, and voiceover.

Questions may be directed to panel organizers Tara Smithson (tsmithson@saintmarys.edu) and Scott Manning (smanning@gmail.com).

Multiethnic literature of the United States has a history of rethinking, reimagining, and redefining race and racism through the study of non-white and ethnic Euro-American literature, narratives, and experiences. Throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, ethnic American writers have written on what seemed to have been bleak, harsh, dystopian presents, and even apocalyptic futures. Writers who write of their personal, communal, or cultural lived experiences that are outside the norms of the dominant society know and understand that a harsh past and present can still bring about renewal and a bright future. And they have used their voices to represent a broad array of experiences in the U.S.
