Shakespeare on Film, TV, and Video

Albuquerque, NM

Feb. 13-16, 2013

The Shakespeare on Film, Television, and Video Area is now accepting proposals for the SW/TX PCA/ACA’s 34th annual conference, which will be held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel and Conference Center in Albuquerque, NM. This year’s theme is “Celebrating Popular/American Culture(s) in a Global Context”; we welcome proposals that engage with the overarching conference theme, as well as those that treat the convergence of filmed Shakespeare, pop culture, and mediatization more broadly.

Potential topics might include: global Shakespeares; inter- and cross-cultural Shakespeares; Shakespearean auteurs; digital Shakespeares; Shakespeare and film genre; Shakespeare and the digital humanities; and postmodern Shakespeares.

Please submit a CV and 250 word proposal to conference2013.swtxpca.org by November 16, 2012. Inquiries may be directed to Area Chair Jessica Maerz at jmaerz@email.arizona.edu.

Details about the conference, including information about conference travel and graduate student awards, can be found at www.swtxpca.org.
