Sound Changes: Improvisation, Social Practice, and Cultural Difference
A two-day symposium to explore Tasmanian travel writing and journeys in Tasmanian literature.
Call for proposals for a panel on "The Cosmopolitan and the Postcolonial" at EACLALS (Innsbruck, Austria, 14-18 April 2014).
This panel seeks papers that explore the mythic and iconic qualities oflandscapes in American literature, whether they be rural, wild, regional, or urban, to further examine human/nature intersections as constituents of place.
We also seek papers that theorize ecocritically about the formationof mythic landscapes in the individual, regional, cultural, or social mind,and the boundedness or unboundedness of mythic places.
We encourage papers on regions and locations ranging from iconic cities (New York, Los Angeles,New Orleans, etc.) to national parks, from sites like the Grand Canyon and Okefenokee Swamp to the inscribing of the small town or regional identity
(the Black Hills).
Our panel in 2014 will consider Elizabeth in relation to the other monarchs--those who preceded her, those who were her contemporaries, and perhaps even those who followed her, both in England and abroad. It is supposed that Elizabeth has famously compared herself to Richard II, and we know that she openly drew on the Tudor legacy in her speeches and political strategies. What elements of Elizabeth's queenship are derived from or are conceived in opposition to the ruling styles or politics embraced by certain medieval monarchs as well as Elizabeth's contemporaries abroad? What elements of her own rule are imitated or criticized by the later kings and queens? What can we glean from Elizabeth's diplomatic relationships with the other monarchs?
