The panel "Abortion, Single Motherhood, and Adoption Schemes in Magdalene Literature" will take place at the 56th Annual Convention of the Northeast Modern Language Association (NeMLA) organised from March 6 to March 9 in Philadelphia, PA. 

Magdalenism is a structure which was implemented from the mid-seventeenth century to the end of the twentieth century in about 60 European and Europeanised countries around the world. Its objective was to control and fashion femininity, women’s social behaviours, and their sexuality. At a time when abortion was illegal in most countries, Magdalene Laundries and Mother and Baby “Homes” were often seen as a “solution” for unmarried pregnant girls and women.

deadline for submissions: 
Sunday, August 11, 2024

The Eudora Welty Society seeks submissions for its 2024 SAMLA panel, “Mirrors and Magnifications: Eudora Welty and Shifting Perspectives.” In alignment with this year’s SAMLA theme, Seen and Unseen, the panel aims to investigate the methods that Welty uses to mirror, frame, magnify, and even distort the vision of her characters and/or readers. Welty’s work displays a creative use of varying avenues of sight with material, political, and epistemological consequences—some examples from her fiction may be the dimmed lamp that contributes to R.J.

PoP Moves, an international network of popular dance researchers, invites proposals for a Special Topics Issue of The Journal of Popular Culture on the topic of mediating popular dance histories.

Adaptation's Call to Revolution

Monday, September 30, 2024

Adaptation, widely regarded outside the academy as a conservative practice, has been compared to biological evolution by Gary R. Bortolotti, Linda Hutcheon, and Brian Boyd. Although the evolutionary model embraced by these scholars sets itself against reviewers who continue to judge new adaptations as more or less successful copies of familiar texts, it still emphasizes continuity rather than disruption as the rule for textual and cultural adaptation.

NeMLA 2025: Radical Bodies

updated: 
Monday, July 15, 2024 - 10:29am
Northeast Modern Language Association (NeMLA)
deadline for submissions: 
Monday, September 30, 2024

Human bodies and, by extension, human subjectivity have long been contested spaces. Against traditional Eurocentric and anthropocentric definitions of the human as a stable identity abstracted from its surrounding environment, movements like feminism, anti-racism, anti- and post-colonialism, and ecocriticism have called out the human’s complicated entrenchment in and with other/othered bodies and landscapes. Posthumanist scholars like Rosi Braidotti define the (post)human body as necessarily relational, nomadic, ever-changing with and in response to others. As such, the body becomes a site for radical transformation through which we may interrogate contemporary issues such as gender and race equity, income inequality, and climate change.

A recent New York Times article, “Are We in the ‘Anthropocene,’ the Human Age? Nope, Scientists Say,” reported on the ongoing debate among scientists about classifying the Anthropocene as an epoch or an event. Regardless of its definitive place on the geologic time scale, the Anthropocene is a significant marker of history, signifying humans’ profound impact on the environment and the course of evolution. This raises critical questions about the nature of evolution in the Anthropocene. How do we define evolution in this age? The Anthropocene is characterized by human achievements and significant challenges, including wars and climate destruction. These crises force us to question: what kind of Anthropocene are we striving to preserve?

Bandung to Berlin: Art, Decolonization, and the Cold War

Friday, July 12, 2024 - 3:25pm
Princeton University Department of Art & Archeology
deadline for submissions: 
Monday, August 12, 2024

Bandung to Berlin explores the radical imagination of the global Cold War, the aesthetics of Non-Alignment, and the role of art in the era of decolonization. Though these topics are often treated as separate paradigms, their points of interconnection are deeply entangled. As former colonies across Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean fought for and gained independence, new national agendas navigated the competing pressures of the Cold War and resisted a dichotomous world order. This conference will explore transnational artistic exchanges and cultural diplomacy in the years 1947-1989, especially across regions in the Global South. We hope to foster new conversations about the confluence of art and politics in larger cultural imaginaries.

How are Asian American and Pacific Islander bodies figured across different media—in contemporary novels, poetry, and visual arts? How do the transits and residues of US empire across the Pacific inform these representations? This panel investigates texts that center AAPI bodies and their varying materialities, wherein racialized bodies take on other-than-human forms (i.e., paper, digital, textual, watery, earthy, animal, etc.). The panel aims to explore how these embodiments are shaped by the residual and ongoing violences of US empire and/or war in the Pacific.
