The Social Impact of Climate Fiction. A Cross-Disciplinary Conference

26-27 May 2025

University of Southern Denmark (SDU), Odense, Denmark

Abstract deadline: 1 November 2024

Overview: This conference seeks to consolidate emergent scholarship and artworks that explore the power of narrative to motivate climate-conscious action. The emphasis in this conference is on climate narratives in practice; in other words, it is concerned with works that apply these narratives in various public-facing contexts.

The Society of Nineteenth Century Historians, in partnership with the Pamplin College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences at Augusta University, presents the 32nd Annual Symposium on the 19th Century Press.

The Society invites panel and paper submissions dealing with media, broadly defined in the nineteenth century. Recent topics have included the Civil War of fiction and history, slavery and abolition, coverage of presidents and legislatures, the minority and foreign language press, the illustrated press, sensationalism, reporting on the arts, and spiritualism and the supernatural.

What role do the genres autoethnography and/or memoir play in the revolution and evolution of Black women in the academy? How can they help instigate radical change and encourage sustainable practices for Black women who seek to thrive in higher education?

In a roundtable format, “Write Smack In the Middle: Black Women, Autoethnography, Memoir, and the Academy” will shift the conversation from studying others to reflecting on oneself. This interactive session aims to create an intentional space for Black women who serve in academia to reflect and center on their daily experiences in their own words. 

Conference online: 26-27 September 2024\

Scientific Committee:

Professor Wojciech Owczarski – University of Gdańsk, Poland
Professor Polina Golovátina-Mora – NTNU, Norwegian University of Science and Technology
