Modern and Contemporary Drama
Submission Deadline: November 1, 2001
The 7th Annual GES Conference will be held February 22-23, 2002 at Texas
Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. The theme of this year's conference,
"Past and Future Perspectives: Negotiating our Changing Field,"
addresses our changing field from the graduate scholar's perspective.
The palindrome of the year suggests examination of ways our past can
help us deal with our future regarding issues arising from new theories,
cultural shifts, evolving technologies, and recent discoveries.
While I am especially interested in abstracts/proposals which address
the following suggested topics, abstracts dealing with any aspect of
Modern and Contemporary Drama are welcome and will be considered:
Irish and British and Drama: Synge, O’Casey, etc.;
European and Continental Drama: Strindberg, Ibsene, Pirandello,
Hauptmann, Sartre, etc.;
American Drama: Eugene O’Neil, Tenessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Edward
Albee, etc.
These areas are only general in nature and for specific authors. All
essays that fall in the general category of Contemporary and Modern
Drama are welcomed. Essays that discuss minority issues, gender, and gay
issues are also encouraged.
E-mail submissions are strongly encouraged; please put "GES Conference
Proposal" in the subject line for all electronic submissions.
Participants may present no more than two papers or be on no more than
two panels.
Abstracts/Proposals (250 words) and inquiries should be addressed to:
