MLA 2025, New Orleans (9-12 January)

The Forum on Seventeenth-Century English Studies (LLC 17th-Century English) invites submissions for a guaranteed session on “Early Modern Social Media.” We are particularly interested in research that addresses the power of both established and emerging media—ballads, pamphlets, newsletters, pasquinades, and so forth—to amplify the gravity of historical circumstances, harness public affect, and precipitate ideological shifts. Please send 250-word abstracts by 3/15/2024 to Carmen Nocentelli (nocent@unm.edu).
