​CFP: 

Coined by Marianne Hirsch in the 1990s, the term postmemory by now entered various disciplines who search to understand how memory form our identity and how we position, articulate or just make sense of our place in the society and our relations with it. The term postmemory problematizes the concept of memory by bringing attention to the memories that are not exactly personal but that keep on shaping one’s life and one’s  way of seeing the world.

The Fifteenth IASEMS Conference

The Fifteenth IASEMS Conference in Lecce, University of Salento, 16-17 May 2025, will investigate the imaginary of waters in Shakespeare and early modern texts, aiming at the exploration of notions of fluidity and crossing. The conference wishes to investigate what meanings, both personal and collective, circulated around ‘water’ in early modern culture, but also to discuss the water-related relevance and value of the ideas of shapelessness and transformation, mutability and sea change as opposed to fixity, solidity, and normativity.

In the very first year of the new millennium, the world witnessed the attacks on the World Trade Center, in New York City, on September 11. We all watched it numbly on television, as if it had been an action movie or an apocalyptic dystopia. This event has remained in the collective consciousness as the most tragic terrorist attack on American soil, with more than 3,000 deaths and a list of geopolitical consequences that have changed the world.

A Hundred Years of Flannery O’Connor: Re-Visiting Her Legacy

updated: 
Tuesday, January 21, 2025 - 5:08am
Universidad Complutense de Madrid
deadline for submissions: 
Friday, February 28, 2025

The year 2025 will mark the centennial of one of the most powerful voices in twentieth-century American Literature. Author of a reduced fictional production (two novels and three collections of short stories), Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964) remains among the most widely praised authors of the United States, to the extent that, shortly after her premature death, claims by, among others, Brainard Cheney, Robert Giroux, and Caroline Gordon were made about the country having lost their next Nobel Laureate for Literature. Alternative history aside, what is true is that the last century of American literature would have lost an enormous amount of its meaning without the existence of Flannery O’Connor’s writing.
