Vladimir Nabokov

CALL FOR PAPERS MLA CONVENTION 2021

By dana_dragunoiu, 3 March, 2020

For its next session at the MLA Convention 2021 (7-10 January, Toronto), the IVNS welcomes proposals on the following theme:

Playing with/for Time: Nabokov's Persistent Images

Nabokov created persistent images (visual and other), which mark readers' minds not unlike the phenomenon of retinal persistence. How do such images survive, confer timelessness to his fiction, or anchor it in a specific temporality?

Please send a 250-word abstract to Lara Delage-Toriel (ldelage@unistra.fr) and a short bio by March 24th, 2020.
