I am organizing the Nabokov panel for the upcoming Joyce conference. Any aspect of the relationship between Nabokov and Joyce will be considered; I am particularly interested in papers that take into account both author's relationship to Ithaca.
I am now seeking submissions for this panel, so please email me with an abstract by
January 15, 2005 if you are interested in participating.
Please send abstract to:
Dr. Marianne Cotugno

2005 North American James Joyce Conference
Return to Ithaca
June 14-18, 2005
The 2005 North American James Joyce Conference will be hosted by the
Cornell University Library, with help from Cornell's English Department and
Society for the Humanities, as well as the Pennsylvania State University
Libraries and the Ithaca College Department of English. In addition to the
usual suite of academic panel sessions, presentations, and reading groups,
the event will include both musical and theatrical performances, as well as
a major exhibition of material from Cornell's outstanding collection of
Joyceana.
Although proposals for papers, panels, and presentations on any and all
aspects of Joyce studies will be considered, we encourage work that
addresses, however remotely, the conference theme. For instance:
? Notions of home, nostalgia, and remembering
? Returning to Joyce's early works, manuscripts, notebooks, etc.
? The "Ithaca" chapter of Ulysses
? Homeric parallels in Joyce
? Explorations of connections with Ithaca, NY (e.g. Nabokov and
Joyce, Pynchon and Joyce)
? Journeying in general, including places in Joyce's works
? Returning as a re-evaluation of Joyce's text and Joycean criticism
(e.g. in the 2nd century following Bloomsday)
? Readings of passages involving returning and/or moving backwards
(e.g. "wurming along gradually for our savings backtowards motherwaters so
many miles from bank and Dublin stone")
** PLEASE PLAN ON LIMITING INDIVIDUAL PRESENTATIONS TO 15-20 MINUTES **
