Society for the Study of Southern Literature MLA 2024 Call for Papers
Given the presidential theme Celebration: Joy and Sorrow, this panel will explore the topic of “Black South Joy.”
So much of the popular discourse about the South, and about the experience of Blackness in the South particularly, revolves around narratives of white supremacist violence. As scholars of southern literature, we spend much of our time encountering Saidiya Hartman’s “scenes of subjection” in the works of both white and Black authors alike. And yet, even in the darkest moments, Black folks in the South have created rituals of celebration, not only as acts of resistance, but as reflections of the simple fact of their humanity.
The South Atlantic Modern Language Association’s 95th Annual Conference "(In)Security: The Future of Literature and Language Studies" will take place from November 9-11, 2023 in Atlanta, GA. For conference information, check out SAMLA's website (https://samla.memberclicks.net/)

What does it mean to be treated “like an animal”?
The central theme of the forthcoming 40th issue of our interdisciplinary journal "Świat i Słowo" [“World and Word”] is "Literature from a local and regional perspective." In the era of progressive globalization and universalization of culture, sometimes imposed by the media and the so-called opinion-forming centers of the dominant civilization model, in which the world is perceived as a "global village" inhabited by a consumer society that is supposedly subject to inevitable changes forced by technological progress (with the revolution of artificial intelligence at the forefront), we want to turn to what we perceive as primal and natural, i.e. sources of literature, culture and art in our local and regional spaces and communities.
Community is at the heart of solidarity. To build community is to be willing to both critique its very essence and collaborate with others to strengthen the bonds. This conference seeks to explore and highlight interactions and connections by examining solidarities, tensions, and community building among the Black diaspora throughout the Americas and beyond.
Presentations that highlight the successes and joy of Black/Afro-descendant communities, resistance, activism, and cultural production as well as interdisciplinary approaches are especially welcome. ALARA is a multidisciplinary organization and welcomes presentations from all fields (humanities, social sciences, health sciences, etc.).
Calum Waddell (University of Aberdeen) and Chenyu Lin (University of Cardiff) are seeking to put together an edited collection Jackie Chan with the ReFocus series at Edinburgh University Press. This is a Call for Papers for a book on the work of Jackie Chan as filmmaker (NOT actor).

The MLA’s Forum on Psychology, Psychoanalysis and Literature solicits abstracts for a non-guaranteed panel at the 2024 MLA Convention in Philadelphia on psychoanalysis and decolonization. Psychoanalysis is often critiqued for its silence on the phenomena of colonialism and its legacies in the present and decoloniality as discourse and praxis. In recent years there have been calls as well to decolonize psychoanalysis and/or resurrect psychoanalysis for the people, the collective, the subaltern, and those without economic or social advantages for accessing the clinic.
CFP for the MLA 2024 Convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (USA)
Conference Dates: January 4th to 7th 2024
Inspired by Pascale Casanova's world literary system, this panel seeks to challenge national paradigms by investigating transnational mediators. We welcome papers addressing writers who specialize in international mediation strategies (adaptation, translation, mimesis, extraction), specific moments of cultural brokerage, or literary works that are considered to have global influences and international linguistic-literary value. Please submit a 250-word abstract directly to the conference website - https://pamla.ballastacademic.com - by May 31.
