Scope

Half a century later, the seeds Alice Walker planted with her seminal essay “In Search of Our Mothers’ Gardens” (1974) continue to  blossom today in aesthetic conversations. In Search of a Beautiful Freedom: New and Selected Essays (2023), whose title is inspired in part by Alice Walker’s In Search of Our Mothers’ Gardens: Womanist Prose (1983), Farah Jasmine Griffin asserts, “That book helped to shape many of us formed as intellectuals and writers in its wake.

A popular t-shirt claims the first Pride was a riot.

During a police raid on the Stonewall Inn on 28 June 1969, some customers fought back. Resistance continued for several nights. Whilst this may have inspired the first Pride march, it was not the first LGBT+ protest.

Latinx Marxisms: Revolutionary Nationalism, Socialism and Communism in Latina/o/x History, Politics & Culture Editors Jaime Acosta Gonzalez, Ben Valdez Olguín, Jennifer Ponce de León This anthology seeks proposals for original scholarly essays, as well as testimonials, oral histories, and interviews, in addition to historical photos and images, that explore the long and complex legacies of Marxism and revolutionary praxis in U.S. Latinx history, politics, and culture.

The body functions as an active agent in generating knowledge, memory, and stories. This year's conference places the relationship between memory and the body at its core, emphasizing how the latter serves as a site of cultural, political, and historical negotiation. The body exerts significant influence on the creation and retrieval of memory, compelling us to critically examine the individual and collective memories produced and transmitted through the embodied experiences of culture, politics, trauma, and (post)nation.

The Jonathan Bayliss Society invites proposals for a roundtable on American experimental fiction. Beginning at least as early as Moby-Dick, American experimental fiction flourishes in the work of Stein, Burroughs, Pynchon, Gass, and Bayliss, and continues today with such writers as Giannina Braschi, Karen Russell, Colson Whitehead, Lance Olsen, and Mark Danielewski. Such writers disrupt conventions of genre, style, syntax, diction, propriety, narrative form, page layout, and much more. We are interested in papers devoted to particular works or authors as well as more wide-ranging or theoretical approaches to the topic.
