The Cultural History panel seeks to revivify the political or social intersections that exist between text and context, including interdisciplinary aspects of culture. While papers that explore the continuities between history and film, history and literature, or history as it interweaves with marginalized aesthetic traditions would receive preference, excerpts of longer, ongoing projects that examine how cultural formations are “translated” or subsumed into historical trajectories would be particularly welcome. Submissions that not only practice cultural history by invoking the liminality of borderlands, but also critically reflect upon that practice are also encouraged.

The conference theme this year is "Translation in Action": https://www.pamla.org/conference/2024-conference-theme/

Submit to pamla.ballastacademic.com no later than May 30, 2024. Membership in PAMLA and conference registration are required in order to present.
