Scope
The family is often conceived in terms of exclusivity, closeness and intimacy. The word ‘intimate’ – intimus, or ‘most interior’, in the Latin – suggests that this relationship touches our innermost part, that which is deepest and hidden from view. Familial ties are further corporealized in terms of blood, or the physical proximity of shared space, resources, and memories, and acts of care. Broader ethnic, linguistic, cultural and national communities may be framed as extensions of this familial ‘inner circle’, as the concept of the body politic suggests; the family, for Rousseau, is ‘the first model of political societies’ (The Social Contract).

The Northeast Popular Culture Association (NEPCA) The Body, Fashion, and Popular Culture Area invites submissions for NEPCA’s annual conference to be held online October 9 – 11, 2025.
This two-day conference, sponsored by the Faculty of English and St John’s College, Cambridge, invites proposals for papers on Thomas Nashe and voice. Papers might consider orality and performance; typographic representation of dialogue; gesture and non-verbal speech; heteroglossia and genre hybridity; point of view, narrative perspective, and focalization; style, parody, and mimicry; and Nashe’s use of multiple authorial personae and narratorial surrogates.
In accordance with the conference theme, “Palimpsests: Memory and Oblivion,” the work of French philosopher Henri Bergson is more than relevant. Bergson’s Matter and Memory published in 1896 explores not only how memory functions in human activity, but the levels of memory and its importance to our lives.

Scope & Topics
This roundtable serves as a direct continuation of "Navigating Graduate School," from last year's PAMLA conference in Palm Springs. One of the most mystifying parts of graduate school that can seem intimidating to a prospective student is what happens after your qualifying exams. You're done with coursework. You've gone through your qualifying exams. You are now considered 'All-But-Dissertation,' or ABD. What happens? While graduate handbooks will helpfully detail requirements for dissertations, prospectus meetings, etc., the experience of navigating the terrain between qualifying exams and the job market can feel abstract.

The International Postgraduate Conference in Translation and Interpreting 2025
Modality, Mutability, and Mobility: Currents of Change in Translation and Interpreting
In an era characterised by rapid advances in media and technology, intensifying cross-cultural interactions that shape our languages and identities, the transformative influences of AI, multimodality, and intermediality on our understanding of meanings and forms, as well as emerging challenges in global social, political and ecological contexts, the theme of this year’s conference will be ‘Modality, Mutability, and Mobility’.
This year’s Latinx Literature and Culture session welcomes paper proposals centering on any aspect of Latinx literary studies, cultural studies, and film or media studies.

Fluidity is a complex state of being in the world that exists in the realm of the aesthetic. To be fluid means to be continuously shifting and morphing, calling attention to embodiment and its materiality in relation to spaces and each other. As an identitarian characteristic, fluidity challenges the spatio-temporal logics that impose rigid taxonomy through the hetero-patriarchy and, instead, offers resistance. As a spatial condition, fluidity may offer malleable or blurry boundaries to help form alternative ways of being and connecting in the world. As a process, fluidity means to reimagine bodies and spaces as watery.
'Looking Back, Looking Forward': ROLES XIV Sexuality & Gender Studies ConferenceCall for papers deadline: 12 May 2025, 12 midday (BST)Conference date: 9 June 2025, 10am-4pm (BST); University of Birmingham and onlineAbstract submission portal:
Seismic developments in technology, politics, and cognition are radically transforming the traditional writing classroom, which has been a site of contradiction (and at times controversy) since its formation after the GI Bill and the “democratization” of the university. Whether one starts with Raymond Williams or the New Critics through the Sputnik era, the cultural interventions of the late ’60s and the process movement, or the cultural turn of the ’80s, the “field” on which “the writing classroom” is founded has been a contested zone all along.
Contemporaneity: Historical Presence in Visual Culture, a scholarly, peer-reviewed publication edited by graduate students in the University of Pittsburgh’s Department of History of Art & Architecture, invites submissions of short-form content for its upcoming relaunch issue.
This panel seeks presentations on uses of generative AI in the college classroom, with a particular focus on approaches that combine theory and practice. Especially welcome are presentations that are built around transferable skills and activities/assignments in different disciplines including writing and literature.
The panel will take place during the MMLA's annual convention from November 14-16 on the campus of Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. For more informationa about the organization and the conference, see: https://www.luc.edu/mmla/convention/futureconventionplans/
This panel seeks presentations on Technical and Professional writing, whether in the college classroom or in the world at large. The panel will be interdiscplinary - we invite proposals from those working in business writing, engineering communication, health science writing, and other fields.
Topics can range from ethics to pedagogy to technologies including AI. The final panel will seek to comprise a cohesive but varied set of papers.
Creative writing and technical writing are often seen as distinct disciplines , one rooted in imagination and artistic expression, the other in clarity, functionality, and precision. However, in today’s evolving communication landscape, these boundaries are increasingly blurred. From storytelling and spontaneous overflow of emotion to persuasive technical crafting, the fusion of creativity and technical accuracy is more relevant than ever. This conference seeks to explore how these disciplines can inform, inspire, and shape each other.
Sub-Themes: We invite original research papers and creative presentations on the following sub-themes, though not limited to:
● Narrative Techniques in Technical Writing

We are seeking proposals for papers that explore Octavia E. Butler’s oeuvre for a special session at the PAMLA 2025 Conference in San Francisco.
The session format is a seminar: Four to seven participants will share their paper ahead of time and then present a brief (five to seven minute) summary of their paper during the seminar, allowing time for an extended question and discussion period.
All submissions are welcome, but because Butler’s literature evidently lives in the past, present, and future—within the fictional worlds she builds and in our world as her readers—we are particularly interested in papers that engage with her work in relation to the 2025 PAMLA conference theme, “Palimpsests: Memory and Oblivion.”
