ABSTRACT        

Since the end of direct colonization, African literature has remained anchored in a new direction of consciousness-raising and awakening for black people. This literature, which has always served as a means of expression and protest in the face of social challenges, has since served as a tool for learning and education.

In all medical practices, two goals stand out: to cure and to care. In a vernacular context, care is discursive, relational, and mutual, while cure is linear, utilitarian, and quantifiable. In his book Care and Cure: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Medicine, Jacob Stegenga iterates on two sides of the care-cure conundrum: “[...] when an intervention mitigates harm then it provides some care, and when an intervention mitigates abnormal biological functioning
then it goes some way toward cure.”

This session invites scholars to bring Chaucer and the Lancastrian poets in

conversation with the latest criticism and theoretical underpinnings in

relation to queer and trans studies of the last few years. Particularly, using

time as a teleological field to measure queer and trans experience,

embodiment, and memoir. Chaucerian and medieval studies have been33

responsible for groundbreaking work over the years on pre-modern

conceptions of gender and sexuality. However, those fields are also

responsible for the perpetuation of cisgender/cissexual centred optics that

have continued to influence the reception of texts like The Canterbury

Conference online (via Zoom): 24-25 April 2025

All details: 7th "Memory, Affects and Emotions" Conference

CFP:​

Affects, emotions and perceptions have always been at the center of philosophical discussion. Yet the so-called “Affective turn” in social studies and humanities is a relatively new phenomenon inspired by Deleuze and Guattari´s influential works among others. Affective turn challenges the still dominant representational approach in semiotics, discourse analysis and text analyses of all kinds.

​

Seismic developments in technology, politics, and cognition are radically transforming the traditional writing classroom, which has been a site of contradiction (and at times controversy) since its formation after the GI Bill and the “democratization” of the university. Whether one starts with Raymond Williams or the New Critics through the Sputnik era, the cultural interventions of the late ’60s and the process movement, or the cultural turn of the ’80s, the “field” on which “the writing classroom” is founded has been a contested zone all along.
