Twenty-Third International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities 25-26 June 2025, University of Hawaii, Hilo, USA.

Founded in 2003, the New Directions in the Humanities Research Network is brought together by a common interest in established traditions in the humanities while at the same time developing innovative practices and setting a renewed agenda for their future. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries.

The Twenty-Third International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities features research addressing the following annual themes and special focus:

CFP - Edited Volume: Female and queer bodies in speculative fiction and visual culture

Edited by María Gil Poisa (University of Oviedo, Spain) and Débora Madrid Brito (University of La Laguna, Spain)

Endnotes is the annual graduate conference of the Department of English Language & Literatures at the University of British Columbia-Vancouver, which is located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Musqueam First Nation. The English Graduate Caucus invites proposal submissions for presentations, panels, and creative or multidisciplinary works on the theme of Solidarity and Spaces.

The fully online Open Access Medieval Studies (OAMS) conference aims to facilitate the critical and explicit intersection of Palestinian liberation and medieval studies. As such, this virtual conference will run directly counter to the Centennial Meeting of the MAA, happening March 20-22, 2025.

We invite scholars at all stages in their academic careers to submit papers centering on the theme of 'liberation,' broadly conceived. Proposals due February 14. Questions can be directed to mfpconference2025[at]gmail[dot]com.

Geoanthropology: Metabolism, Legal Imagination, and Geopraxis

Conference Call
9–11 June 2025
Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, Italy

Theme

Geoanthropology aims to integrate concepts from Earth system science and the Anthropocene debate, such as planetary boundaries, synchronic geological markers, and earth states, with the theory and history of phenomena such as extractivism and technology, biopolitics and exploitation, and modernity and legal thought. This interdisciplinary conference aims to explore the utility of three concepts for the geoanthropological framework: metabolism, legal imagination, and geopraxis.

The Audre Lorde Travel Grant for Summer 2025

The Spelman Archives is pleased to offer two travel awards of $2,500.00 each for two

currently enrolled PhD students to research in the Audre Lorde Papers during Summer

2025. This award will support research and public engagement with Lorde’s papers and

About the Spelman Archives:

The primary mission of the Spelman Archives is to collect, preserve, organize, and make

available for research historically significant documents and other materials which reflect

From its origins in South African debates about the direction of the anti-apartheid movement, to its reinvention by Cedric Robinson as a theory of race and capital’s world-historical enmeshment, to its contemporary status as a master signifier for left-antiracist critique, racial capitalism is here to stay. Across fields and theories, archives and methods, it circulates as the authorizing ballast for any number of arguments: that capitalism differentiates rather than homogenizes; that anticapitalist politics must proceed from the existential grounding wire of alternative cosmologies; that race names the persistence of feudal social relations in the conceptual, libidinal, and political infrastructures of global modernity.
