We are delighted to announce that we are coming up with an edited volume encompassing the various contours of contemporary Maternity Rights and Motherhood experiences to be published by a reputed international publishing house. We are eager to hear your professional thoughts, observations and analysis regarding the Maternity Bill, which applies to many nations, including India. The book intends to provide a thorough analysis of the effects of the Maternity Bill on the population of working mothers, making it an invaluable resource for advocates, employers, employees and policymakers. The volume aims to deconstruct the maternity bill, clarify its elements, highlight its flaws and offer practical advice on how to deal with its ramifications.

Since their formal inception in the 19th century, writing courses have been seen as “a preparation for citizenship and productive work” (Brereton, 1995, p. 9). Rhetoric around the “knowledge economy” prioritizes communication skills in equipping students for success in competitive job markets (Cope and Kalantzis, 2009). These students, however, face more than professional challenges in the world: the rise of climate catastrophe, wealth inequality, misinformation, state-sanctioned violence, and economic uncertainty, to name a few.
The International Conference on Minority Languages (ICML) will be hosted outside of Europe for the first time since its inception in Glasgow in 1980. Universidad Externado de Colombia is the proud host of this opportunity to bring together expertise from more than two continents, to share experiences and research regarding minority/minoritized languages. The ample linguistic diversity of the American/Abya Yala continent provides challenges, but also great examples of intercultural dialogue and multilingual cohabitation. ICML will be a great opportunity for knowledges to be exchanged, academic and practitioner experiences shared, and dialogues fostered.
We are soliciting chapter proposals for an edited volume that investigates the origins and evolutions of gender benchmarking in Asian literature. This proposed book volume is tentatively titled Evolving Genders: The Dynamics of Narrative Benchmarking in Asian Literature.It is a collection of scholarly research outputs that examines how various agents such as ritualistic practices, family expectations, cultural orientations and even dogmatic factors contribute to the benchmarking of gender aspects as presented in Asian literature.
Concept Note:
Contemporary translation theory reflects the breakdown in the traditional dichotomy “author” versus “translator,” since it views the translator no longer as a subordinate figure to the author, but as an equal co-creator of the literary work, who rewrites the original text in another language and thus actively participates in the creative process. How does attention to this changing relationship between the author and the translator help with understanding of the creation and interpretation of meaning and the subsequent longevity of the translated work in a new environment?

Poetry off the Page is an online, international platform for anyone interested in the study and analysis of Anglophone spoken word and poetry performance from the 1960s to the present day.
Eco-environmental criticism has now become a staple presence in the interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary landscape, calling for ongoing reflections on the human impact on the environment. A distinct aspect of these conversations has been the growing focus on the concern of ecological destruction for the planet, with all the inevitable consequences that this entails. Within changing contexts that feel increasingly more precarious, conceptualisations of the ‘eco-futures’ have become central to our cultural discourses, from film to television series, from literature to comics, from animation and video games to digital narratives and design, from socio-ecology to animal studies.

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?
