Panels are now forming for presentations regarding Captivity Narratives in all of their various forms and as regards the interpretive approaches. Historical and more modern narrative studies are acceptable. Recent presentations included analyses of narratives written by Mary Rowlandson, Olaudah Equiano, and various Spanish captives. Additionally, one panel focused on modern prison tales. Personal/familial narratives are also welcomed. Please send an abstract of your presentation to the address below. Graduate students/scholars/and non-academic professionals are particularly welcome to participate or register to attend the conference and captivity narrative forum.
