Date
Body
The Nabokov Society will once again be sponsoring two panels at the
Twentieth Century Literature Conference in Louisville, KY.
Well-organized, friendly and lively, this conference is always enjoyable
to attend; given this is the 35th anniversary for the conference, it will
be an even bigger event for all attendees.
Conference date: February 22 – 24, 2007
Panel 1: Geography in Nabokov’s Writings
This panel seeks a collection of papers that creatively look at Nabokov’s
treatment of geography. This topic could lead to more concrete
discussions of specific places in the writings to assessments of how
recent theorists of space and geography (such as Henri Lefebvre, Edward
Soja, David Harvey, etc.) might offer ways of thinking in new ways about
Nabokov’s work. Nabokov’s scientific writing and efforts should also be
considered possible lines of discussion.
A group of papers that seem to offer the best possibility for lively
exchange among participants and attendees will be chosen for this panel.
Panel 2: Open session
This panel seeks a collection of papers that offer a fresh perspective to
common threads of critical discussion in Nabokov’s works or suggest new
lines of thinking about his works.
If you have any questions about either panel, please contact me.
Abstract submission deadline: September 1, 2006
Please submit 500 – 1500 word abstract and brief bio to
Dr. Marianne Cotugno
