Film Journal Thematic Issue Proposal: First Films and Early Style
Co-editors: Omid Bagherli and Charline Jao
We are seeking prospective contributers for a special issue of Film Journal on the topic of early style.
Millions experienced physical and mental trauma as a result of the First World War. Government and private organizations attempted to mitigate the war’s impact in multiple ways – whether through direct medical care, through social support, or through rehabilitative assistance. This panel seeks to explore official and unofficial infrastructures of caregiving that surfaced during the war and postwar periods, with particular interest in the way that these systems are examined and evaluated in writing and the visual arts. Papers on all aspects of the war’s caregiving infrastructure are welcome.
The first Canadian conference on agri-food and rural advisory, extension, and education (CAREE) will be held at the University of Guelph, 29-31 October 2025. The conference theme is extension 4.0: disruption and transformation in agri-food and rural development. It highlights the growing recognition of the Canadian approach to agri-food development. The conference addresses an overarching scholarly and policy discussion, both globally and regionally, that has long been captivated by a compelling question: Does Canada have an effective agri-food and rural extension and advisory service?

The Streets of Tomorrow:
The Cityscape(s) of Fantasy & Science Fiction
Eighteenth-century global history is a history of seas and oceans. International trade and migration stretched across all continents. Britain’s colonial empire, and the trades on which it thrived – not least the Slave Trade – was driven by its domination of the world’s waterways. The port city of Liverpool was a major gateway for Britain’s contact with the wider world through maritime routes. This complemented the complex network of domestic waterways – rivers, canals – which played a significant part in Britain’s industrial revolution.
On this International Day of Peace , the European Scientific Institute (ESI) invites you to an online gathering that goes beyond a traditional conference—it is a shared experience, a platform for connection, and a call to action for peace.
Held previously in renowned locations like Beirut, Almeria, Barcelona, and Tenerife, MIFS is now set to take place at the University of Catania, Italy. The conference fosters academic networking and critical thinking through the presentation of research articles across various social sciences and humanities disciplines. Over the years, hundreds of papers have been presented and published in open-access format after undergoing a rigorous peer-review process.
MIFS welcomes scholars from a wide range of fields to participate in this vibrant intellectual exchange. Join us at the upcoming conference and contribute to the ongoing discourse in the social sciences and humanities!

2025 Conference Huntsville, AL October 9th- 11th
The Popular Culture Association in the South and the American Culture Association in the South meets annually to to present and discuss ideas about popular culture, American culture, and culture world-wide. This year we meet at the Embassy Suites by Hilton in Huntsville, a lively hub of universities near the Space Center.
Throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, popular culture increasingly served as an intermediary to present and, in some cases, reimagine academia and the academy for mass audiences. This mediation results from an assembly of narratives from various media forms and contexts, both by those inside and outside the academy. The result is a vision of the academy in Western popular culture that is exciting and inviting at turns, but is more frequently shark-like, insular, and intimidating.
Dialogues and Dissonances: The Environmental Humanities from North-South Perspectives

Campolide Campus - Colégio Almada Negreiros (25-27 September, 2025)
Concept Note
In recent decades, the term Global South has come to signify the distinctions between the industrialised nations of the “North” and the comparatively less developed nations of the “South.” The Global North-South designation, however, is not strictly geographical but instead reflects various geopolitical, economic, and ecological commonalities between countries.
