Dear colleagues, Could you circulate this CFP please?
Call for Papers:  Historiography in literatures and cultures: between literature, history and myth, 20-21 December  2013   Baku Slavic University  and Azerbaijan Comparative Literature Association are pleased to invite paper proposals for a traditional joint Comparative Literature conference on  the topic Historiography in literatures and cultures: between literature, myth and history,  which  will take place in Baku   in 20-21 December  2013. This interdisciplinary conference aims to explore methodological and practical aspects of history as expression of memory and memorization of history in the text, how history locates between historical and literary genres, and how distinguish portrayal methods of history in different cultures.    History is the significant factor, which impacts in the content and forms of representation of the text, both scientific and artistic.   Comparative investigation of  different periods and locations, such as The Great Migration of early medieval period and migration of XX century, followed after  collapse of modern empires; or  disillusionment of newly emerged states in yesterday’s ideologies, icons and attempts to reconsider   past, brought to parallels in conceptualization of past, changing the interpretation of past, or in other words, history of different period and by different people. In this context, one of the substantial  issues of the day is to what extent  chronicle orhistorical textbook are documentary, and to what extent imagination in literature and visual arts is data garbling and could be considered ethical.        Suggested panels and papers should address, but not limited, to the abovementioned points and research questions: Is speculation in literary or visual (such as movie, poster) representation of historical events, persons and vice-versa?Where are the borders between literary (or any art type) genres and documentary?Reassessment of past in texts: incompleteness of history?Historical itineraries and changing interpretation of depiction of history in textbooks and by different people?Are literature and culture tools for resolving contradictions of history writing?How technologies influence into creation of  documentary and fiction?How they create historical stereotypes?Literary fiction as source for undocumented stories of history?History and ideologyLiterary forms  and genres for representing  myth and history in medieval period in different cultures (epic, kasida, oda, et al.)Traces of history in ancient myth (as Belosnejka (Snowwhite) and seven dwarfs, or amazons in Iskender-Nameh by Nizamy)?Collective Memory: Are they the same: Oral Literature and Oral History? Individual memory and travelogue (travel notes) as historiography (Journey to Erzerum by A.S.Pushkin, Journey to Moscow from Peterburg by A. Radishev, Letters by Russian trekker N.M. Karamzin, travelogues by Medieval ambassadors, Seldjuk-Name or Ibn-Bibi about campaign of  Turks from Asia Minor, Polovtsians and Russians to Soudak,by Ibn-Bibi  )Individual memory and diary   (The Diary of Anne Frank, Azerbaijani Diary by Thomas Goltz)Traces of history through architecture  (privatized buildings by Bolsheviks in Soviet era; style of construction as influence of time, such as classic Roman-Greek style vs. modernity as described in The Fountainhead  by Ayn Rand) Proposals, which cover any relevant aspect and field are welcome in the following formats, especially with pro and cons papers
