[Commlist] Call for Papers: Broadside Extra! News, songs and provocations in the history of cheap print and street literature

Call for Papers
Broadside Extra!
News, songs and provocations in the history of cheap print and street 
literature

One-day conference Saturday 15th October 2022, hosted by the School of 
Media and the Centre for Critical Media Literacy (CCML) at Technological 
University Dublin
Organised by the Traditional Song Forum and CCML, with the support of 
the Irish Traditional Music Archive and An Góilín Traditional Singers Club.
This will be an in-person conference, with proceedings live-streamed for 
those who cannot be there. Admission is free.
We invite proposals for 15-to-20-minute presentations on any aspect of 
cheap print and street literature in Britain and Ireland (and their 
diasporas) – including intersections of the histories of journalism and 
other facets of the popular press.
The Traditional Song Forum’s annual Broadside Day conference has been 
held every February for almost 20 years, but whenever possible the TSF 
likes to add a second event,  Broadside Extra, in the autumn, in 
partnership with other institutions and organisations. This is the first 
time the event will be held in Dublin.
Broadside Extra is our opportunity to gather and talk about the 
fascinating field of cheap print and street literature of the past; 
broadsides, chapbooks, last dying speeches, catchpennies, garlands and 
news sheets, penny histories and children’s books, popular prints, 
pedlars, jobbing printers. ballad-singers, and so on. Proposals for 
papers and panels are invited in any of these areas. Proposals that 
examine how marginalised people and groups used these media forms are 
particularly welcome.
For queries and to send an abstract of approximately 250 words, together 
with a biography of not more than 150 words, please 
contact: (steveroud /at/ gmail.com)
Deadline for proposals:  31 July 2022
No payment from authors is required.
