This is a call for paper for an edited volume “(Re)Imagining Gender in Post-Covid Times: Transformations and Possibilities” which looks into the transformations that have occurred in gender relations in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic, which was a global crisis, had a considerable impact in different aspects and reinforced pre-existing inequalities across gender, sexuality, class, caste, and other spheres of marginality. This edited volume aims to closely examine these transformations through the lens of gender as the primary variable in understanding post-pandemic societies.

98 Annual South Atlantic Modern Language Association Conference ~ Atlanta, Georgia ~ November 5-7, 2026 

This panel invites papers that examine how literary and cultural texts represent and imagine the dynamics of hospitality, with particular attention to questions of inclusion, belonging, and access for LGBT individuals, as well as in real-world institutions and spaces. Acts of welcome in homes, nations, classrooms, or communities often involve negotiating boundaries: who is invited in, how that welcome is extended, and what it means to belong. How do literary and cultural works depict LGBT figures moving within, across, or outside these spaces?

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Welcome to the Buffyverse - Von Lebenden, (Un-)Toten und ungebrochener Relevanz

Die Erstausstrahlung von Buffy the Vampire Slayer 1997 auf The WB Television Network jährt sich im kommenden Jahr zum dreißigsten Mal. Die Serie hat die Populär- und Medienkultur der Jahrtausend-wende maßgeblich mitgeprägt und ist zugleich als Referenztext weit über diesen historischen Moment hinaus wirksam geblieben. Ihre anhaltende Relevanz beruht nicht zuletzt auf der ästhetischen und narrativen Verfasstheit: Genre-Hybridität, Intertextualität, ironisch-selbstreflexive Erzählverfahren sowie eine ausgeprägte figurale und narrative Komplexität machen sie noch heute zu einem beliebten Gegenstand kultur- und medienwissenschaftlicher Auseinandersetzung.
