Call for Papers: Post45 Graduate Symposium 2025

The 10th Annual Post45 Graduate Symposium

March 14-15, 2025

University of Michigan

Departments of English, American Culture, Digital Studies, and Communication and Media

The Post45 Graduate Symposium seeks graduate-level works-in-progress related to post-1945 media, arts, literature, digital platforms, politics, and culture. We welcome submissions that expand our conception of objects and meaning-making post-1945 or place them in comparative, transnational, or hemispheric frames. We invite (though do not require) engagements with our theme of “Public(s)”: the make-up of interpretive communities; who or what constitutes “a” or “the” public; oppositional audiences and readings; conversations that move beyond and across traditional disciplinary bounds; public scholarship and public humanities, etc.

For more details and to submit an abstract, please see this form: https://bit.ly/4gg9WAC. Abstracts are due Monday October 21, 2024.
