Preliminary call for papers:
NO SENSE OF DISCIPLINE:
An International Conference on Interdisciplinarity
The University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia
Monday and Tuesday, 11 and 12 June, 2001
Registration and accommodation details, and a mailing list for updates,
have now been added to our website:
http://english.uq.edu.au/conferences/interdis
250 word abstracts must reach us by January 30.
Confirmed plenary speakers:
Professor Sander Gilman, University of Chicago
Professor Linda Hutcheon, University of Toronto
Professor Michael Hutcheon, University of Toronto
Professor Helen Tiffin, University of Queensland.
This is the first of a series of biennial conferences to alternate
between the University of Queensland and the University of Toronto.
Our focus is the testing of the borders between LITERATURE and/or
MEDICINE and/or MUSIC, but we are equally interested in papers that
consider ways in which any of these disciplines intersects with and
illuminates a further discipline--architecture, art history, classical
studies, cultural studies, environmental studies, geography, history,
law, media studies, philosophy, psychology, or urban studies, for
example. We encourage the crossing of period as well as disciplinary
boundaries.
Participants are invited to address their own particular and current
interdisciplinary interest/s, or to critique methodologies and theories
of interdisciplinarity.
There will be three plenary meetings, accompanied by a number of panels
that will consist of three papers of twenty minutes each, with fifteen
minutes' question time.
We invite proposals for twenty-minute papers, or for panels of three
papers. Abstracts of 250 words should reach us by email or mail on or
before January 30, 2001.
