CALL FOR PAPERS, COLLABORATIONS AND INTERVENTIONS: AESTHETICS AND
RADICAL POLITICS
Fri 2nd Feb 2007, University of Manchester

Sponsored by the SGSA
www.sgsa.org.uk

There has always been a strong connection historically between
aesthetics and radical politics, and this is no less true for the
global justice movement's current preoccupation with cultural
approaches to political action. This conference seeks to bring
radical artists, activists, theorists and academics together to
discuss past and present convergences between the theories and
practices of artists and writers and the theories and practices of
movements for radical social change.

(LAND)SCAPES & REFLECTIONS
IN THE ENGLISH-SPEAKING WORLD.

An International Conference to be held at the University of Caen
Basse-Normandie - France -
         14 & 15 June 2007 -

either. In it, through it, a certain culture, and desires express
themselves, a subject is speaking, discourses are interwoven and
disseminated. Our conference will endeavour to sketch the many
crisscrossings which happen in a landscape.

Call for Papers: Representations of Memory in Film

Terence McSweeney (University of Essex) and Alistair Harvey (University of Winchester) solicit proposals for a collection of essays entitled 'Representations of Memory in Film'.

We invite any academic approach to the term memory and its depiction in the cinematic art including, for example, philosophical, psychological, social psychological, cultural, filmic and personal reflections on the film-going experience.

New Deadline for "Cross Cultural Explorations of Trauma" at the North
East MLA, Baltimore March 1-4.

Despite Cathy Caruth's claim in her landmark collection "Trauma:
Explorations in Memory" that "trauma itself may provide the very link
between cultures," trauma has been infrequently explored from
cross-cultural and non-Western perspectives. This panel seeks to examine

critique the Eurocentric perspective of trauma studies, and to
investigate the manner in which trauma reinvigorates psychoanalysis with
the work of cultural critique.

Paper topics might consider the following questions:
