for our 2006 conference to be held February 17 and 18, 2006. We are
interested in papers/presentations for the following suggested panel:
 
 
Expressions of Mourning
How is mourning, as dealt with in literature and art, an expression of
individual loss/desire/power/identity and community loss/desire/power/identity?
How do the two aspects of individual and community conflict and/or engage with
each other?
 
We are accepting completed paper submissions only, no abstracts, please.

function as commentaries on or expressions of any and all topics listed, or, they

a brief (1-2) page explanation of the submission's relevance to the
