[Onur İnal]

CALL FOR PAPERS:

CAA 2007 Annual Meeting, New York City, 14-17 February 2007

Consuming Images Constructing Selves: Europe and the Orient in the 18th Century

The 18th century is a defining moment in the history of East-West encounters, coinciding with the emergence of new identities both individual and collective, innovative technologies of representation and reproduction, and the burgeoning of mercantile culture. Papers for this panel should contribute to the critical inquiry of cross-cultural exchanges during the 18th century, and enrich our understanding of their legacy. Potential topics include text/image relationship, patterns of image consumption, practices of display and performance, 'translations' of images, and the role of Oriental/Occidental imagery in the self-representation of 18th-century elites.

Proposals are due by May 5th:
