Twenty-Third International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities 25-26 June 2025, University of Hawaii, Hilo, USA.

Founded in 2003, the New Directions in the Humanities Research Network is brought together by a common interest in established traditions in the humanities while at the same time developing innovative practices and setting a renewed agenda for their future. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries.

The Twenty-Third International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities features research addressing the following annual themes and special focus:

Theme

Geoanthropology aims to integrate concepts from Earth system science and the Anthropocene debate, such as planetary boundaries, synchronic geological markers, and earth states, with the theory and history of phenomena such as extractivism and technology, biopolitics and exploitation, and modernity and legal thought. This interdisciplinary conference aims to explore the utility of three concepts for the geoanthropological framework: metabolism, legal imagination, and geopraxis.

Refugee Crises in Literature, Film and Mass Media: Balancing Humanitarian Obligation with Ethical Standards

Department of English, University of Calgary Graduate Students’ Free Exchange Conference
deadline for submissions: 
Monday, February 10, 2025

The formation of the United Nations in 1945 was intended to forestall global wars and inaugurate global peace. Despite its efforts and those of other international and regional organizations, wars have persisted in the 21st century. For instance, in Africa, countries are engulfed in the vortex of armed conflicts from the struggle between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) to the farmers-herders conflict in Nigeria and the Somali government/Al-Shabab Islamist militant group conflict. This violence is echoed in the post-election tensions between the military and insurgents (Allied Democratic Forces) in the Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, just like the post-Tigray War conflicts in Ethiopia.

Extinction and Interdisciplinary Liberal Arts (Conference Panel)

updated: 
Friday, January 31, 2025 - 12:13pm
47th Association for Interdisciplinary Studies (AIS) Conference: Oulu, Finland
deadline for submissions: 
Friday, February 14, 2025

In Extinction Studies: Stories of Time, Death, and Generations, Deborah Bird Rose, Thom van Dooren, and Matthew Chrulew insist that capturing the breadth of a disaster of this scale is “an inherently interdisciplinary task, one that draws us into conversation with a host of different ways of making sense of others’ world” (4). To portray this polycrisis as too large to be contained to one discipline is apt, with credible estimates designating between one- and two-thirds of species on earth as “likely to disappear within the foreseeable future” (Myers et al., 856).

2025 Ceræ Call For Papers – Conference & Journal

updated: 
Friday, January 31, 2025 - 12:09pm
Ceræ - An Australasian Journal of Medieval and Early Modern Studies
deadline for submissions: 
Friday, February 28, 2025

We are pleased to announce that the theme for our second annual online Conference next year as well as for Volume 12 of the journal is Dreams, Visions, and Utopias, and we invite submissions to both CFPs that contemplate what is the arguably most ubiquitous and diverse literary genre of the medieval and early modern centuries.

Dreams and visions could be personal or communal. They could be of the past, present, or future. Some touched on real events or people, while others were entirely imaginary, and most were somewhere in between. They can encompass the horrors of nightmares to the bliss of salvation, or calls for political freedom and mobilisation as much as an afternoon daydreaming in the sunshine.

deadline for submissions: 
Friday, February 7, 2025

Conference online: 27-28 February 2025

​CFP: 

Coined by Marianne Hirsch in the 1990s, the term postmemory by now entered various disciplines who search to understand how memory form our identity and how we position, articulate or just make sense of our place in the society and our relations with it. The term postmemory problematizes the concept of memory by bringing attention to the memories that are not exactly personal but that keep on shaping one’s life and one’s  way of seeing the world.

The Fifteenth IASEMS Conference

University of Salento (Lecce), 16-17 May 2025
Convenors: Maria Luisa De Rinaldis, Maria Renata Dolce and the IASEMS Executive Board

The Fifteenth IASEMS Conference in Lecce, University of Salento, 16-17 May 2025, will investigate the imaginary of waters in Shakespeare and early modern texts, aiming at the exploration of notions of fluidity and crossing. The conference wishes to investigate what meanings, both personal and collective, circulated around ‘water’ in early modern culture, but also to discuss the water-related relevance and value of the ideas of shapelessness and transformation, mutability and sea change as opposed to fixity, solidity, and normativity.
