MATLIT, 2017, vol. 5 Call for Sounds

Editors:

Nuno Miguel Neves (FCT PhD Programme in Materialities of Literature)

Tiago Schwäbl (FCT PhD Programme in Materialities of Literature)

 

MATLIT’s volume 5 explores what we call literature as VOX MEDIA: voice as a means for literature and the disturbances suffered by the medium from the combined effect of performance, and technologies for mediation, representation and reproduction. And also other instances, like the tensions between the body and technology, audibility v. in-audibility of the text, sound and meaning, physical presence and/or absence of the authors, and so forth.

X-Certificate British Cinema of the Long 1960s

We propose a co-edited special issue of an REF-calibrated print journal on the subject of British films of the “long 1960s” that sought or seemed to explore the changing mores of society, and were given a BBFC “X” certificate for doing so.

We define the “long 1960s” as approximately 1958-1971, as paralleled to the tenure of noted BBFC secretary of the board, John Trevelyan. Films awarded an X-certificate are searchable via here: http://www.bbfc.co.uk/ (“Advanced search”)

Demythologizing the Family Subject

Family is most often presented as a shelter from social disturbances that threaten its very existence, but in which individuals, assaulted by existential issues regain their balance and draw energy for each coming day. But family is likewise a breeding ground for social pathologies rather than their mere recepient. And if so, which one predates and influences the other? While this may be a chicken and egg dilemma, it is also a valid proposition for discussion.

Medievalism and Pedagogy (Kalamazoo 2017)

Thursday, September 15, 2016

“[M]edievalism now features in hundreds of currently taught university and college-based courses, especially in English Literature departments across and beyond the English-speaking world...” writes Louise D’Arcens in the introduction to the new Cambridge Companion to Medievalism (2016). This session will explore the implications of teaching medieval studies through or alongside medievalism(s). How do students—many of whom are newly engaged with studies of medieval topics—perceive the distinction between medieval and medievalism? To what degree does medievalism affect/inflect non-literary studies of the Middle Ages (in history or art history courses, for example)?
