Call for Papers
(Con)textual Identities: Formation and Reformation
April 3-4, 2004
Tenth Annual Southwest Graduate Scholars Symposium
Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona
The conference welcomes one-page abstracts, session and roundtable proposals
from graduate scholars in any area of discursive constructions of identity/ies.
Twenty minute presentations might focus on a specific work regarding the
representation of identity/ies in the fields of literature, art, history,
popular culture, composition and rhetoric, gender studies, philosophy, science
and technology, music and theology. Because the theme of the conference is
inclusive and interdisciplinary, it provides focus for a dialogue while
encouraging creative connections across several areas of graduate scholarship.
Submissions are invited on the following topics that are meant to motivate, but
not limit, your thinking:
Selfhood and Agency * Rhetorical Constructions of Selfhood * (En)gendering
Identities * Virtual Identities * Contextualized Pedagogies: Identity in the
Classroom * Selfhood and/in/through Composition * Identities in and through
