Teaching the Arthurian Tradition(s)

updated: 
Tuesday, November 5, 2024 - 10:37am
Illinois Medieval Association
deadline for submissions: 
Sunday, December 1, 2024

Deadline for Proposals: December 1

Session: 2:00 pm (Central) January 17, online via Zoom

The Arthurian Tradition(s) is often most students’ first and only exposure to the Middle Ages. Exposure often comes from films that students have seen: Fuqua’s King Arthur (2004), Ritchie’s King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017), and Lowery’s Green Knight (2021). What students learn from a course or unit on the Arthurian Tradition(s) is often very different from filmed depictions. This session seeks papers that explore issues, opportunities, and innovations in teaching the Arthurian Traditions(s). We welcome all aspects of teaching Arthuriana.

In A Dying Colonialism (1959), Frantz Fanon, one of the most significant thinkers on decolonisation, writes firmly:

‘There is not occupation of territory, on the one hand, and independence of persons on the other. It is the country as a whole, its history, its daily pulsation that are contested, disfigured, in the hope of a final destruction’ (p. 65).

ACLA Virtual Conference 2025: Ghost Figures in World Literature

updated: 
Wednesday, October 9, 2024 - 8:23am
American Comparative Literature Association (ACLA)
deadline for submissions: 
Monday, October 14, 2024

A ghost, Avery Gordon writes, “has a real presence and demands its due, your attention” (2008, Ghostly Matters). To answer this demand, our seminar invites submissions that turn their attention to literary and artistic ghosts. After all, ghosts are profoundly literary figures; like poetics, they are defined by their repetitions and returns, and constantly referring to something else, though failing to fully represent it. However, ghosts are not any literary figures. They are haunting, and although they have a strong presence they come into life in place of something absent. Moreover, in their haunting presence, they are signalling “repressed or unresolved social violence” (Gordon, 2008).

 

Infrastructure(s) & Storytelling: Rethinking Contexts, Connections, & Erasures [ACLA 2025; virtual; May 29–June 1, 2025]

Infrastructures, both visible and invisible, are all around us and they permeate our lives in various ways. Larkin defines infrastructures as “built networks that facilitate the flow of goods, people, or ideas and allow for their exchange over space” (327). Though most commonly associated with its physical manifestations, the term infrastructurealso encompasses intangible elements that play a crucial role in society. Thus, infrastructures are not merely "limited to pipes, roads, and wires" but should, instead, be understood as “interdependent networks of materials, people, and nature that enable the functioning of modern life” (Lockrem 529).
