Description
“The aim of the conference
is to encourage debate between and across disciplines with a focus on the varied
historical, cultural, technological, and intellectual settings in which the modernism-utopia
nexus might be clarified and explained. A principal goal of the conference is
not just to engage with but to challenge, build on, and extend current work in
the new utopian and new modernist studies. Proposals are invited for 20-minute
conference presentations that consider modernism in relation to utopia and utopianism,
in written, visual, aural, and plastic media.” (BAMS)
