CFP: Romantic Ideologies (grad) (2/1/06; disjunctions, 4/7/06-4/8/06)
This call for papers is a proposed panel to be held at Disjunctions, the
University of California,
Riverside's 13th Annual Humanities Conference, April 7-8, 2006. In keeping
with this year's
theme, Lost in Translation, this panel attempts to consider how notions of
Romanticism are created, overturned, and reborn.
Suggested topics in the ever-widening field of British Romanticism (poetry,
drama, and the novel, 1780-1850) include
Romantic subjectivity
The Oriental tale and/or imperialism
Mythology and intertextuality
Nature, science, and medicine
Romanticism and Gothic monstrosity
