Rhetorical Approaches to Literature (PAMLA)
*** DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JUNE 16 ***
PAMLA Annual Conference
Palm Springs, California
November 6-10, 2024
"Rhetorical Approaches to Literature" (Paper / Panel)
This standing session is open to all papers that explore some aspect of rhetorical approaches to literature, including (but not limited to) papers that:
apply aspects of rhetorical theory to specific literary works
explore the rhetorical agendas of individual authors and/or broader literary movements/periods
examine the intersection of literature, culture, and politics through a rhetorical lens
Although not required, we are also particularly interested in papers attuned to some facet of the conference theme, "Translation in Action."
Anyone interested in submitting a proposal (<500 words) and brief abstract (<50 words) can upload their documents by creating an account at https://www.pamla.org/pamla2024/ and then searching for the “Rhetorical Approaches to Literature” standing session (Session ID: 19290).
PLEASE NOTE: The original deadline for this session has passed, but we are still looking for a couple of panelists to round out the group. Although the new deadline is listed as 6/16/24, all new submissions will be evaluated on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out!
