The English, Media Studies & Art History Postgraduate Society (EMAPS) at
the  University of Queensland, calls for papers which are a part of the
new popular prefixing that represent part of the current tendency to go
beyond traditional classifications.

Participants are invited to address any of the 'prefixed' academic
categories from either a theoretical, critical, or creative perspective
from any of - but not restricted to - the analogous areas to English,
Media and Cultural Studies and Art History.

The conference will provide participating scholars and creative writers
an invaluable opportunity to develop academic and social networks with
other postgraduate students and academics from across Australia and
around the world through two days of intellectual exchange.

Please send a 200 to 300-word abstract as well as a 50-word bio (on the
same page in Times New Roman font/size 12, please) to our conference
organisers at wipconf at uq.edu.au by Friday, July 7.

Located in Brisbane, the University of Queensland is one of Australia's
premier learning and research institutions with some 37,000 students.
The largest and oldest university in the state of Queensland, it's also
a founding member of the national Group of Eight, an alliance of
