> ReVisions of Australia: Histories, Images, Identities

>
> As the plurals in its title might suggest, this
> conference seeks to explore the multiplicity and
> nature of "change" in approaches to a variety of
> issues that Australia is/was/has been concerned with
> during its history in the southern Pacific region. As
> the pun in the title might suggest, we also seek to
> explore how particular "visions" - whether in
> "visionary" or "visual" form - (have) underpin(ned),
> influence(d), symbolize(d), or illustrate(d) various
> ideas at a particular cross-section of the Australian
> space and time. Finally, the grammatical difficulty in
> choosing the proper verb tense in this paragraph
> arises from the contextualising survey-approach we
> wish to initiate, where the context of a particular
> investigation can be history (time), region (space and
> place), or theory.
>
>
> We invite papers that
>
>
> -revisit established icons
>
> -place a practice/event/object/text in a historical
> continuum of interpretations
>
> -compare a practice to a differing one within/outside
> the region
>
> -place a practice/approach in an ongoing debate
>
> -deal with the ethics and politics of remembering and
> forgetting
>
> -observe changing cultural narratives of memory and
> identity
>
> -deal with the causes, agents, and nature of a
> particular "change"
>
> -reflect on the visualisation of memory
>
> -deal with "visions," i.e. fields of study/art that
> employ visual skills (film, drama)
>
> -deal with the intent and impact of "visions" in any
> written or objectified source.

>
> Our Associations' inter- and multidisciplinary
> approach to studies on Australia can host

> A to Z, but definitely including Architecture,
> Australian Studies, Cultural Studies, Environmental
> Studies, Film Studies, Gender Studies, Geography,
> Indigenous Studies, History, Law, Linguistics,
> Literature, Performing Arts, Philosophy, Political
> Science, and Sociology).
>
> So as to accommodate the widening interest of our
> membership in viewing Australia in comparative,
> regional contexts, we will also invite papers on/from
> New Zealand.
>
> As this EASA conference would like to preference
> studies of the performing arts, presentations focusing
> on the stage and screen are especially welcome.

> Postgraduate Seminar, where advanced students can
> discuss their work with experts in their field in a
> lecture + workshop-format.
