Call for Abstracts: New Approaches to Rape Studies in the Long Eighteenth Century

Co-Editors: Jolene Zigarovich (University of Northern Iowa, USA) & Doreen Thierauf (North Carolina Wesleyan University, USA)

Due in part to well-publicised advancements in generative AI technologies such as GPT-4, there has been a recent explosion of interest in – and hype around – Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies. Whether this hype cycle continues to grow or fades away, AI is anticipated to have significant repercussions for fandom (Lamerichs 2018), and is already inspiring polarised reactions. Fan artists have been candid about using creative AI tools like Midjourney and DALL-E to generate fan art, while fanfiction writers have been using ChatGPT to generate stories and share them online (there are 470 works citing the use of these tools on AO3 and 20 on FanFiction.net at the time of writing).

SCOPE & OBJECTIVES OF THE BOOK

Generative AI is changing how we conceptualize writing and thus thinking and creation. As scholars of literature and writing, we are uniquely positioned to reflect on these changes. To this end, this panel aims to spark interdisciplinary conversations about AI and its relation to writing, the writing process, and writing instruction. We hope to encourage an inclusive forum for exchanging perspectives, experiences and practices.

Embrace Empowerment at WOMENSCONF2024: Join the Global Movement

Are you ready to be part of a transformative experience that is shaping the future of women's studies? Look no further than the 6th Global Conference on Women's Studies (WOMENSCONF2024), coming to Zurich, Switzerland, from 5th to 7th July 2024. Let us take you on a journey of knowledge sharing, global networking and empowerment like never before.

Benefits of WOMENSCONF2024:

We find ourselves in a landscape of failure. We have failed to reach every climate goal we have set, and there is no returning to an unpolluted world. Institutions have failed their workers, resulting in a resurgence of industrial action and defiance. On the international stage, governments have failed migrants and refugees, leading to unprecedented levels of displacement. 

Can something productive be drawn from failing? How have past failures – of revolution, of technology, of selfhood – been put to constructive ends? And how might failure be mobilised as a new site of resistance?
