[ecrea] CFP - Alternative Modernisms: An International, Interdisciplinary Conference Cardiff University

Thu May 31 23:06:15 GMT 2012


CALL FOR PAPERS

*Alternative Modernisms: An International, Interdisciplinary Conference*

*Cardiff University, 16-18 May 2013*

*Confirmed keynotes*: Professor Jean-Michel Rabaté (University of Pennsylvania), Professor Griselda Pollock (Leeds University), Professor Ástráður Eysteinsson (University of Iceland).

The Centre for Critical and Cultural Theory and the English Literature Department, Cardiff University, are pleased to announce the call for papers for their upcoming Alternative Modernisms conference, to be held in Cardiff from 16-18 May 2013.

This international, interdisciplinary conference aims to bring attention to critically neglected modernist texts, movements and forms, as well as considering the extent to which modernisms are themselves (an) alternative – to realism, tradition, mass culture, or even to each other.

Please find attached the full call for papers and the conference poster; please circulate widely to all interested parties.

Proposals for 20-minute papers are due by 31 October 2012. Submissions and enquiries should be sent to (_modernisms /at/ cardiff.ac.uk) <mailto:(modernisms /at/ cardiff.ac.uk)>_. For more information, please see the conference website, _www.cardiff.ac.uk/encap/modernisms <http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/encap/modernisms>_.

The conference will also host the inaugural meeting of the Welsh Network of Modernist Studies, a new umbrella organisation which seeks to bring together academics working on modernism in Wales to facilitate better communication and collaboration. For more information please contact Emma West at (weste /at/ cardiff.ac.uk).

Very best wishes,

Emma West
