Session I: New Directions in Wright Scholarship. We welcome papers
involving significant new research or critical approaches to Wright and
his work.

papers ranging from Wright's responses to global events to the
reception of Wright's work in various international settings.

For either session, proposals should take the form of a 200-400 word
abstract submitted electronically as an attachment in Word to
