CFP: [Romantic] The Labor of Lyric (4/15)

CFP for a panel to he held at the 2008 International Conference on Romanticism at Oakland
University in Rochester, Mich.

The Labor of Lyric

While often professing to be a form in which a seamlessness or an ease
between language and speaker is captured—a form of so-called
“self-expression,” that is—Romantic lyricism in fact often precisely
bears the marks of its own preoccupations with craft, work, effort, and
labor. This panel welcomes proposals that seek to frame the various
practices of Romantic lyricism as forms of work or labor.

Submit abstracts or queries to Magdalena Ostas at mostas_at_fau.edu. Be sure to submit an additional
abstract to r2anders_at_oakland.edu, indicating that you have submitted the abstract to this session.
Deadline is April 15.
