Scope
Space is not defined objectively, but in relation to bodies, as it is a manifestation of their needs, intentions, and desires. It is not a container in which objects exist but is intertwined with the body’s orientation in the world and its movements within the space. Human body, therefore, is at the centre of all spaces, which are more than a geometrical concept in abstraction. Individual bodies apprehend and appropriate space differently and give meaning to embedded systems and institutions through established and evolving associations. Any assumption of personalised space, whether private or public, is embedded with historical, cultural, and social meanings which help curate embodied experiences.
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.

Ecocritical Theory and Practice, a book series published by Lexington Books, an imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing, is seeking proposals at the interface of literary/cultural studies and the environment.
This panel invites papers addressing the formative roles played by the queer print infrastructures that established, defined, and perpetuated literary modernism. Via the material production systems of independent magazines, small-run presses, special edition printings, and specialist bookstores (including Shakespeare & Co., The Little Review, The Egoist, Hogarth Press, Fire!!, etc, etc) queer/non-normative people had a remarkable shaping effect on the material productions and aesthetic coherences/incoherences of commercial and ‘high’ modernism.

Indigenous ecologies and literary responses: Knowledge and rethinking sustainable development
Special issue editor: Goutam Karmakar, University of Hyderabad, India; Durban University of Technology, South Africa
The SAMLA conference is taking place in Atlanta, GA on Thursday, November, 6 – Saturday, November, 8, 2025 at the Wyndham Atlanta Buckhead Hotel & Conference Center. The proposed panel dovetails directly with this year’s conference theme “Knowledge.” Even as the past few years have highlighted death and the value of health, there still remains a lack of knowledge and studies concerning the reality of these experiences for some people, especially marginalized groups. This panel is open to all perspectives and seeks to explore death, health, and/or their intersections in the humanities and beyond.
The 2026 Modern Language Association (MLA) Convention will be held from January 8 to January 11 in Toronto. The past few years have highlighted death and the value of health, but there still remains a lack of knowledge and studies concerning the reality of these experiences for some people, especially marginalized groups. This panel session is open to all perspectives and seeks to explore death, health, and/or their intersections in the humanities and beyond. It also draws attention to health humanities. Some questions the panel addresses include: what are some ways literary and cultural texts broaden our understanding of health, mortality, grief, and wellness or living life well?
This panel seeks proposals for papers that reflect on uselessness as a motif in post-1960 Anglophone literature. What sorts of aesthetic, political, and/or ethical stances do contemporary texts frame as useless, and why? Is uselessness conceivable as a literary or political end in itself? Topics that might be specifically addressed include, but are not limited to: modernist vs. postmodernist approaches to uselessness (how do they differ? Where do they overlap?); the affect(s) of contemporary uselessness; uselessness as a product of (or response to) AI technologies; and the pedagogical value of uselessness. Submissions that contest the viability of "uselessness" as a ground for literary and political critique are also very welcome.
