Call For Papers
Boundaries: critical and creative responses

Department of English and Drama

June 3rd 2006
10.30 am - 5.00 pm

The conference will be organized around a number of panels, each 
featuring three
twenty-minute papers, scheduled across the day. We hope that the day 
will be as
much about discussion as presentation, so postgraduates who do not wish to
present a paper are also strongly encouraged to attend.

We encourage creative and critical responses to the idea of boundaries, 
which
may include, but are not limited to, the following interpretations:

Geographical boundaries; Sudden boundaries: Wartime shifts in geographical
borders; Cultural boundaries; Boundaries of translation between different
languages; Sense/Nonsense; Reason/Unreason; Life, Death and the Afterlife;
Exceeding human boundaries: ESP, telepathy, mediumship; Interzones: 
automata,
robots and science fiction; Critical/Creative boundaries; Historical
events/fictional depiction; Writing creatively about other cultures; Moral
responsibility/creative licence; The literary canon; Literary 
boundaries: genre;
The boundary of the stage in theatre; Transgression of legal boundaries:
criminality; Social boundaries: riminals, prostitutes, poets; Class 
boundaries;
The Living space and its boundaries: home, cell, ward; Fluid boundaries: 
bodies
in the world; Gender boundaries; Bodies, starvation and the self; Sexual
boundaries; Loving and loathing: emotional boundaries; Indulgent 
boundaries: the
politics of pleasure.

250-300 word proposals for 20 minute papers and a brief biographical 
note should
be sent (in Microsoft Word format) by February 15th 2006 to:
