Conference of the Portuguese Association for Anglo-American Studies, 
which will take place between 6 and 8 June 2019.

Papers, panels and roundtables proposals are welcomed on any subject 
that falls under the remit of the two academic areas (including literary 
studies, cultural studies, post-colonial studies, performance, film and 
theatre studies, gender and sexuality studies, translation studies, 
linguistics, language teaching and methodology). Proposals for panels, 
put together around a common theme or research domain are welcome. We 
also welcome papers and panels on Canadian, Irish, Scottish and other 
(Anglophone) Studies. Media and communication studies scholars are welcome.
