Fermentation and Literature 

Saint Louis University, Madrid Campus

April 24th-25th with optional visit to winery or brewery on Saturday the 26th

The 1516 German Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot) limited the ingredients of beer to barley, hops, and water. Yet, this restriction overlooks the invisible and essential agent behind fermentation: yeast. Only centuries later was yeast recognized as the microorganism that drives fermentation. Prior to its discovery, fermentation was often attributed to divine or spontaneous forces, with no understanding of the microbiological agents at play.

Call for Papers

The MS Sound Forum invites papers for a guaranteed session at the Modern Language Association’s annual conference in Toronto in January 2026. The session responds in part to the MLA Executive Council’s refusal to allow debate or a vote on Resolution 2025-1, which supported the international “Boycott, Divest, and Sanction” (BDS) Movement for Palestinian rights against the ongoing genocide in Gaza. In light of the Council’s suppression of debate, at MLA 2026, the Sound Forum seeks to provide a space for dialogue and meditation on silencing, censorship, and the role of organizations like the MLA in the face of systemic violence and threats to academic freedom.
