CFP: Cinematic Homesick Blues (10/15/06; SASA,
2/14/07-2/18/07)
This panel for the Southern American Studies Association
(SASA) will explore filmic uses of the blues and southern

past. Other areas of interest include but are not limited
to: the filmic relationship between visual images and the
blues, diegetic versus nondiegetic uses of the blues, and
transcultural uses of the blues.
