Antigone's Transformation: Modern Interpretations of the Classic Figure

Antigone is a figure of fascination. She has captured the attention of great
critical minds such as Hegel, Heidegger, Irigaray, and Butler; playwrights
continue to offer new ways of interpreting her actions. Why the continued
interest in Antigone's story? What are we to make of the newer, more modern
translations of Sophocles's original? How are we to interact with the mass
of critical scholarship written about Antigone?

Hypervisibility: Homosexualities in Contemporary Film and Television Productions

(bilingual conference. June 8-9 2006 - Concordia University, Montréal)

(see French version below)

CALL FOR PAPERS

In her contribution to Richard Dyer's Now You See It (2nd edition, 2003), Julianne Pidduck remarks that 'contemporary queer works are increasingly entering into mainstream culture' and that 'we now find ourselves in a cultural moment of 'hypervisibility''. It is precisely such increased exposure in contemporary cinema that this bilingual, single-track conference aims to map, analyse, and discuss.
