What roles do ‘hierarchy’ and ‘egality’, as values and practices, play in the everyday lives of South Asian traditions? Hierarchy as a value in the social life of Hinduism has been much discussed. Scholarship has tended to contrast a transhistorical Hindu hierarchy with egalitarian elements of Muslim, Christian, Buddhist and Sikh thought in South Asia, framing ubiquitous caste-like social forms among the latter traditions as anomalous. Yet careful studies of everyday life in the religious traditions of South Asia suggest that a far more heterogeneous set of social imaginaries and a far more complex entanglement of hierarchy and egality are, in fact, shaping the trajectory of both inter-caste and inter-religious relations and practices.

Frank Lloyd Wright began wintering in the Sonoran Desert in the late 1920s, where the region’s extreme climate and tectonic landscape shaped by sun, erosion, and wind profoundly influenced his thinking about architecture. How did Wright respond to the beautiful yet hostile desert environment?

Impregnable: Mediated Meanings of the Body in Resistance

Impregnability has many strong meanings - not becoming pregnant but also capable of withstanding assault. It's a term that lives in connotative alignment with infertility, of non- and un-reproducibility, but it also carries presence over absence, power over victimization. Think protesters who link arms to create an impregnable wall of resistance. Think castles that cannot be stormed. Indeed, the word literally means “unable to be defeated or destroyed; unassailable.”

Seminar 61.- Violence in Early Modern English Drama: From Stage to Screen

From the brutality of Titus Andronicus to the psychological torment of The Duchess of Malfi, early modern English drama is saturated with violence—performed or described, symbolic or spectacular. This seminar will explore how violence has functioned as a dramatic, cultural, and ideological force in early modern English theatre, and how its representations have evolved across time, including contemporary screen adaptations and TV series that borrow early modern tropes of violence, such as House of Cards or Game of Thrones.

These crises shape not only early childhood, but also adolescent identity formation, schooling, embodiment, political consciousness, and future-making.

For this guaranteed session of the TC Religion and Literature forum at the January 2027 MLA convention, we invite papers focusing on literatures of migration and spirituality. Given the convention’s location in Los Angeles, we especially welcome proposals that consider authors and texts with connections to LA and the city as a site of contact, dialogue, and religious syncretism.

Papers might consider, for example:

-       Memoirs of migration in place and faith

-       Religious affect in literatures of exile and precarity

-       Indigenous survival and reemergent spiritual practices in and around LA

-       Sacred spaces and urban geography
