Call for papers for a proposed special session for MLA '06 in
Philadelphia that will explore Pearl S. Buck's works in the context of
U.S. involvement in global affairs. The panel invites papers that
investigate how Buck's political analysis and social commentary
informed her fiction and how her fiction negotiated with foreign policy
questions of the day. Papers that analyze how Buck fictionalized
major world events such as the Second World War, the Sino-Japanese War,
the Chinese Revolution, the Korean War, U.S. imperialism, the American
Century, atomic bombs, the G.I. orphans are particularly welcome.
