Twenty years after his death, Northrop Frye, the author of Fearful Symmetry and Anatomy of Criticism, continues to be one of the most read and the most quoted of literary critics. His attention to form, specifically to genre and mode, and his understanding of literature as a totality have directly influenced two later generations of critics, including Hayden White, Fredric Jameson, and Franco Moretti. In order to celebrate this ongoing legacy, the Department of English and the Centre for Comparative Literature at the University of Toronto, Frye’s home throughout his career, have organized a three-day symposium in his honour. Keynote speakers include WJT Mitchell, Ian Balfour, Robert Bringhurst, J. Edward Chamberlin, Michael Dolzani, and Gordon Teskey. We welcome papers not just on Frye but that are inspired by Frye or that address questions similar to those asked by Frye.
