Call for Papers
Session Title: Considering the Reading of Films
41st Anniversary Convention, Northeast Modern Language Association (NeMLA)
April 7-11, 2010
Montreal, Quebec - Hilton Bonaventure
The aim of this panel is to explore the place of interpretation in contemporary film studies. The central question that the panel will address: what is the value of the work we do when we read movies?
We seek papers that respond directly to that question. We also welcome readings of individual films that, in the process of their unfolding, make a case for the value of interpretation—or that discuss and/or demonstrate the importance of reading well.
Send 250-500 word abstracts to Phillip Novak at novakpp@lemoyne.edu
Deadline: September 30, 2009
Please include with your abstract:
Name and Affiliation
Email address
Postal address
Telephone number
A/V requirements (if any; $10 handling fee)
The 41st Annual Convention will feature approximately 350 sessions, as well as dynamic speakers and cultural events. Details and the complete Call for Papers for the 2010 Convention will be posted in June: www.nemla.org.
Interested participants may submit abstracts to more than one NeMLA session; however panelists can only present one paper (panel or seminar). Convention participants may present a paper at a panel and also present at a creative session or participate in a roundtable.
Travel to Canada now requires a passport for U.S. citizens. Please get your passport application in early.
