Robert Lowell session, American Literature Association, 21-24 May 2025 in Boston

The Robert Lowell Society welcomes proposals for one session at the American Literature Association's annual conference (Boston, MA, 21–24 May 2025).

We are especially interested in proposals that consider Lowell's work in light of today's "death studies." For example: Lowell’s own elegies, his memories of and reconstructions of predecessors and peers, his cemetery poems, his care poems, his commemorative publishing projects, his imitations of elegies by others, his prose about others. Panelists might also consider poems about Lowell, including but not limited to elegies. 

Social justice is the virtue which guides us in creating those organized human interactions we call institutions. In turn, social institutions, when justly organized, provide us with access to what is good for the person, both individually and in our associations with others. Social justice also imposes on each of us a personal responsibility to work with others to design and continually perfect our institutions as tools for personal and social development.

“To be neurodivergent is to reclaim the pathologizing aspects of a long-term cognitive diagnosis and to reclaim one’s neuro-status as a possible position from which to claim resources, representation and recognition” (Stenning and Bertisldottir Rosqvist 1535).
