We are pleased to announce the following Call for Papers for the International Conference “Translating Latin in the Contemporary World”, to be held in June, 11-12, 2026, at the University of Bologna (Italy).
The second International Conference on Globalisation in Languages, Education, Culture and Communication (GLECC2026) is going to be held 28-30 July 2026, Manchester, UK. (https://glecc.org/2026/)
The past two decades have witnessed remarkable advancements in the studies into Education, Second and Foreign Languages, Translation and Interpreting, Cultural Studies, and Communication. This growth, evident in both the number of active researchers and the volume of scholarly throughput and outcomes, can be largely attributed to the forces of globalisation. Consequently, adopting the globalisation perspective is timely and provides a natural framework for connecting these diverse yet interlinked disciplines.

In an increasingly globalized yet hierarchically structured world, the questions of whose voices
are heard, and through what forms of representation, have never been more urgent. Within global
academic and cultural discourses, East Asian perspectives continue to negotiate their positions, seeking
to assert and articulate their own voices rather than being defined through dominant paradigms of
knowledge and interpretation.
We are pleased to invite submissions for the upcoming graduate symposium, “Margins,

Elizabeth von Arnim and Pomerania
6-7 June 2026
The writing of Elizabeth von Arnim (1866-1941, born Mary Annette Beauchamp) was as much a literary outcome of the author’s creative potential as it was a reflection of her individual life story, which in many ways can be seen as a sensitive reflection of the times and places in which she lived.
Panel Announcement: Mapping Regional Divides in Energy and Food Futures
Benelux Geography Conference 2026 — Leuven, 8–10 April 2026
This panel explores how visualising and interpreting spatial imaginaries can enhance our understanding of regionalism and the rejection of socio-ecological transitions. In an era of intensifying regional polarisation, geography’s capacity to make visible moral, material, and affective geographies is increasingly crucial. Communities’ responses to transitions in energy and food systems reveal contested visions of sustainability, sovereignty, and belonging. Mapping these imaginaries exposes the regional dynamics that underpin cohesion, exclusion, and resistance across the Benelux.

Copyright and Intellectual Property Area
As our day-to-day lives depend increasingly on creating “content,” the often misunderstood rules of copyright and intellectual property have an important effect on us. The Copyright and Intellectual Property area seeks to foster an interdisciplinary discussion about the tumultuous cultural battle raging over how we understand the production and distribution of knowledge.

The EDID (Equity, Diversity, Inclusivity and Decolonization) Committee of the CSM/SCM invites papers for a session that will explore disability in the medieval past and/or the ways in which disability studies and medieval studies fruitfully intersect. The session welcomes papers that consider understandings of non-standard human bodies from the medieval past and/or reflect upon the ways in which, as Godden and Hsy write, “the study of disability in the Middle Ages challenges modern narratives of bodily integrity and autonomy” (334). The non-standard body in the Middle Ages takes on a variety of forms both familiar and unfamiliar to us today, from the use of spectacles to colonies of lepers.
The EDID (Equity, Diversity, Inclusivity and Decolonization) Committee of the CSM/SCM invites papers for a session on queer world-making in medieval studies. This session takes as its starting point the idea that queerness is not only an identity category or critical lens, but also a mode of imagining, creating, and inhabiting other worlds. We are interested in how medieval texts envision alternatives to normative ideals, and in how queer approaches to these texts might open transformative possibilities.
The New American Studies Journal: A Forum (Göttingen University Press) invites submissions for a forthcoming special issue in 2026 that focuses on Chinese American literature. We invite submissions of both academic essays and creative works.
Cadernos de Fraseoloxía Galega (CFG), an international journal on phraseological and paremiological research edited by Centro Ramón Piñeiro para a Investigación en Humanidades (Xunta de Galicia), is seeking submissions of contributions for its twenty-eight issue. Even though the deadline is permanently open, only manuscripts received by October 24, 2026 will be considered for issue 28.
The Popular Arts Conference (PAC) invites submissions for our 19th Annual meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, September 3-7, 2026.

NETSOL: New Trends in Social and Liberal Sciences
An Interdisciplinary Journal - ISSN 2469-4002
CALL FOR PAPERS
Faculty-owned and faculty-run interdisciplinary journal NETSOL welcomes submissions from all scholars in the humanities and social sciences.
NETSOL has been housed at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley since 2016.
NETSOL is a peer-reviewed biannual academic e-journal publishing original research articles and book reviews. All articles go through a double-blind peer-review process.
We are soliciting chapter proposals for an edited volume titled “Documentation of/as Violence.” In this volume, we seek to explore how documentation, or the lack thereof, can function in capacities that both enforce and protect against violence. We understand documents, and documentation, through two primary functions: surveillance and preservation. The collection of materials capturing violence enacted upon marginalized communities, as well as how the practice of documentation itself can be a violent action of surveillance experienced by marginalized communities complicate the function of representation in library and archival collections.
