From: Kurvanas-AT-aol.com Date: Sun, 25 Jun 2000 02:32:50 EDT Subject: call for papers Subject: Call for papers I invite list members to submit abstracts for the following seminar at the ACLA Annual Conference to be held 20 - 22 April 2001 at the University of Colorado, Boulder. "The Representation of Space in Late Colonial Narrative" By mid-twentieth century citizens – and readerships – of European metropolitan centers were faced with the "shock of descendancy" as their nations assumed secondary and tertiary roles behind the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. This panel draws its object of study from the vast European literature set in the colonial world during this period. The 12- to 14-paper format of an ACLA seminar lends itself to the exploration of these late colonial spaces from a range of approaches. Equally welcome therefore are papers weighted toward issues of: narratology, philosophy of literary space, or social contexts such as ethnicity, gender, class, postcolonialism. Please send abstract and summary CV by 22 September to: Ken Seigneurie, Lebanese American University, 475 Riverside Dr. (Room 1846), New York, NY 10115-0065. kseigneurie-AT-lau.edu.lb For more information on the American Comparative Literature Association conference see: http://www.colorado.edu/comparativeliterature/acla2001/
