Re-presenting: Looking at the Text Through Different Lenses
English Graduate Student Association Annual Conference
February 15-16, 2002
Columbia, MO
Keynote Speaker:
Dr. Linda Leavell, Oklahoma State University Department of English
Author of Marianne Moore and the Visual Arts: Prismatic Color
Call for Papers and Proposals
At this year's conference, we wish to deal with the issue of text, and
moreover how we understand text. Is there an ultimate understanding of
text? What can each discipline give us in our search for understanding?
How does the text translate from one medium to another - from book to
film, music or the visual arts? How does our understanding of text
change through translation? This conference will provide a forum for
graduate students to discuss and explore the position of the text within
an interdisciplinary world, an interdisciplinary academic setting. The
conference welcomes papers from all disciplines, particularly those
concerned with English, the fine arts, foreign languages, history and
philosophy.
We invite graduate students to submit 1-page abstracts for individual
papers (15 minutes), panels, and roundtables; creative writings
(stories, poetry, and creative non-fiction) are also encouraged. Topics
addressing the conference theme are especially welcome.
