Conradian Crosscurrents: Creativity and Critique, June 1 – 4, 2017
The Joseph Conrad Society of America is organizing a conference in New York City to be sponsored by Fordham University’s Comparative Literature Program and English Department and to be held at Fordham University’s Lincoln Center campus (and other locations to be announced) at the beginning of June of 2017 (June 1 – 4).
“Conradian Crosscurrents: Creativity and Critique” will explore how Conrad’s life and fiction intersect with creative and critical work of any kind. The conference will be open to scholarly work on Conrad and other writers; and on literary, artistic, and theoretical work from across the range of media (literature, music, performance, art, and mixed media).
We invite proposals for 15-20 minute papers. Please send 1-page abstract plus CV to newyorkconradconference@gmail.com by January 15, 2017.
