Call for Papers: Update! Deadlines and a few reminders.
Since many people have requested more time to submit their abstracts, we are
extending the deadline from June 20 to July 10.
In addition, please send abstracts as part of the e-mail message itself, as
e-mail text; our conference chair has a Mac that can’t unzip most files (much
to his suprise!). Please also include a mailing address with your abstract.
Thank you -- Ken Monteith
Here’s the original call again:
Metaphysics of the Image: the alternate, the transcendent, and the virtual in
literature.
Fordham University’s Graduate English Association seeks submissions for our
fourth annual conference, to be held at the Lincoln Center campus Oct. 19-20,
2001. This year’s topic explores the point where reality and textuality
intersect, where the everyday becomes redefined through fictive reality, and
where the mundane becomes redirected though literary transcendence.
Topics include, but are not restricted to:
Political/textual identifications Utopias Distopias
Religious experience Altered minds Transcendent bodies
Virtual realities Science fictions Fantasy fictions
Chemical transcendence Transcendentalism
Political transformation Imagining Saints, Sinners, and Seers
Revisioning race Negotiating gender
>From page, to stage, to screen
We are seeking publication of a selected proceedings for this conference, so
please keep this in mind when submitting abstracts. Please send abstracts by
JULY 10 to Fordham’s Graduate English Association, C/O Ken Monteith either by
e-mail or by post.
