This panel proposes to examine the works of women writers from Africa and the African diaspora who have extensive oeuvres, which include creative work (often of multiple genres) as well as analytical writing (in forms such as essay, interviews, speeches, and other occasional pieces), to posit the argument that the creative work they produce performs theoretical work in exploring the complexities, contradictions, and dilemmas facing the ever-changing postcolonial environment.

This panel addresses the emerging diasporic consciousness that accompanied the movement of people and changes in ecologies in the eighteenth century. Extending last year’s two-part roundtable “Eighteenth Century in Motion” to the question of Diaspora, participants are invited to consider questions including but not limited to:
While the ‘diasporic eighteenth century’ offers proliferating instances of movement, what are some ways to simultaneously consider communities and people subjected to increased physical, discursive, and representational confinement?
What are some circumatlantic relations that the diasporic eighteenth century allows us to consider?
For our fourth iteration of the HPN Symposium, we find ourselves interrogating, engaging with, and pushing the boundaries of the concept of “best practices” and how it relates to humanities podcasting. Our initial inquiry was born out of a discussion about the need to counteract worker invisibility and exploitation on university campus podcast teams. But this raised a larger, thornier debate: Are there other agreed-upon principles of podcast-making and audio creation? If so, have they emanated from particular forebears and models, or sprung up out of habitual creation like unwritten, but widely understood, common laws? Are there contexts peculiar to podcasting that deserve their own careful ethical treatment or understanding?

We are pleased to announce a call for papers for Genealogies of Joy: The Pleasure of Latinx Literature. This edited collection aims to explore the diverse representations of joy within Latinx literary traditions, emphasizing how joy manifests as a form of resistance, resilience, and cultural affirmation from the earliest writings to contemporary moments. How do readers and scholars experience the jouissance of literary recovery, new methodologies, texts, and pedagogies?
Population and production are two terms used to characterize the nineteenth century in Great Britain. For example, the population in England more than doubled by the end of the century due to improving hygiene (i.e., hygeia), increasing birth rate, declining mortality rate (e.g., medical advances), and prosperity. Public health led to a greater commonwealth. The rise of the Industrial Revolution through factories, transportation (e.g., railway), and the synchronization of time stoked the great migration from agrarian to industrial centers. Would the population outstrip production? How could production evolve to keep up with the rising population?

Singles have been and continue to be regarded as anomalies and threats to the social order in the United States and elsewhere (Moran). Within the humanities, the growing interdisciplinary field of Singles Studies builds on scholarship in queer theory and gender and women’s studies to highlight the evolution of relationships that fall outside the structure of traditional marriage and the nuclear family to include singlehood and other types of intimate relationships that do not revolve around these conventional models. As more people opt toward relationship models and orientations that do not involve marriage, it is important that scholarship in the humanities reflect this revolutionary thinking.
