Hey Australian scholars! Do you have some thoughts on nostalgia and popular fiction? Deakin's having a symposium on November 21! @dramyburge.bsky.socialbit.ly/3ZidjRJ

Flyer text:

CFP: Nostalgia and Popular Culture Symposium 

"Nostalgia is always complicated - complicated in what it looks like, how it works, upon whom it works, and even who works on it." Sean Scanlan (2004, p.3)

Cohosted by Deakin's Reading Writing Futures and the Reading & Screening the Fantastique Research Network, this one-day symposium will facilitate robust discussions on the role of nostalgia in the production and reception of popular cultures.

Spanning disciplines, forms and genres, this event aims to think beyond clear-cut conceptions of nostalgia and towards more nuanced understandings of it as simultaneously limiting, comforting, provocative and powerful in the context of popular culture.

Please submit a 250-word abstract for 20-minute papers or panels and a 100-word bio-note to r.fetherston@deakin.edu.au by Friday 11 October 2024.
