Title: “The Colours of Pride: Queer Identities in Literature and Culture”

Proposed Dates: 20-21 November 2025

The Ralph Waldo Emerson Society invites participants in a panel at the 53rd Annual Meeting of the Society for the Advancement of American Philosophy, to be held March 12-14, 2026, at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

The topic of the panel is “Emerson and Power.” Papers may consider topics such as power and moral virtue, power and solitude, power and society, power and agency or disposition, power and metaphysics, power and spirituality, power and democracy, and other related topics. The Society also welcomes proposals that view the term power globally, in moral, aesthetic, spiritual, or political terms.

This panel explores how immigrant and multiethnic writers in the U.S. (re)generate identity and cultural belonging through literature, language, and storytelling, focusing on experiences of (un)belonging, displacement, and fractured selfhood.

CFP for a peer-reviewed volume: “Caring for the Other/ the particular others in 21st-century narratives”
Editors: Iwona Filipczak and Joanna Klara Teske
Publisher: BRILL | V&R unipress
Deadline for abstracts: November 10, 2025

This conference aims to explore the literary, artistic, and cultural reception of ancient Greece through the prism of the relationships between texts and images in Europe from the 14th to the 16th century. How are the different visual and textual forms associated in this context? How was the alliance between text and image integrated into the processes of reception of ancient Greece, in the broad sense defined by Lorna Hardwick i.e., both the reception of its knowledge and texts, and the development of representations of ancient Greece? What does the collaboration between literary and visual creation bring to the various forms of reception of ancient Greece?

In line with American Academy of Religion, Western Region's 2026 Conference Theme, Religion, Technology, and Innovation, the Religion and the Arts unit this year explores technology and the arts, as well as religion and artistic expression more broadly. We will also consider papers related to art, technology, religion, and politics taking place in the United States and abroad, including cases such as those of a US funded genocide in Palestine and ICE raids wreaking havoc across cities and towns in the United States. In these cases, we are interested in how artists use technology both as forms of resistance against human atrocity and as a means of artistic innovation to raise awareness. Topics of possible interest include:

To designate a space as “Southeast Asia” is already to engage a particular epistemology and toponym. Conveniently positioned as the marginal extension of both Indian and Chinese spheres, hence the colonial coinage of “Indochina,” the landscape of what we now call “Southeast Asia” (SEA) emerges from intersecting, if not competing, imperial imaginaries. A regional construct shaped by strategic demarcation and modern taxonomies, SEA (Đông Nam Á, Asia Tenggara, Asie du Sud-Est, Asia Selatan-Timur, Timog-Silangang Asya, Echia Tawan-ok Chiang Tai, Dōngnányà/Nányáng) has been translated into political discourse and variously reappropriated in local languages and scholarly traditions.

Veterans Studies is a growing field of research that addresses the significant impact of military personnel and their families transitioning from active duty to civilian life with an emphasis on the veteran experience. This session invites papers that explore the many facets of military life exhibited in literature, theater, film, and poetry written by or about military veterans as well as scholarly explorations of the veteran experience.

In recent years, publishers and children’s book professionals have registered a new enthusiasm for comic and graphic narrative forms. Graphic narratives as children’s literature offer an exciting new type of text for children and youth, providing important insights into the interests and capabilities of these youngsters as readers and as potential agents of change. Curiously, children’s literature criticism has tended to ignore or, at best, marginalize comics and graphic narratives for young people. This “blind spot” in children’s literature and comics criticism, as Charles Hatfield has called it on a number of occasions, is now being addressed.

Innovations in Psychology and Wellbeing of New Generation

The 21st century has brought unprecedented transformations in society, technology, and education. With these changes, the psychological wellbeing of the new generation has become a matter of urgent attention. Young people today face unique challenges—digital overload, academic pressures, identity conflicts, mental health issues, and social inequalities—while also benefiting from extraordinary opportunities enabled by technology, AI, and global connectivity.

This panel invites submissions that explore how Francophone African and Caribbean writers, filmmakers, and artists use their creative works, personal experiences, spiritual beliefs, and the power of imagination to offer new or alternative ways of seeing/saying, knowing, and experiencing the world. In what way(s) do their works seek to disrupt, challenge, or reimagine old power structures and commonly accepted Eurocentric knowledge systems within a postcolonial framework? Whether in terms of identity, culture, or history, how do these writers, filmmakers, and artists provoke us to rethink our individual or collective existence? What alternative realities or new ways of being-in-the-world do they envision as Africans or Caribbeans?
