"REVISITING STAR STUDIES", 12-14 June 2013, Culture Lab, Newcastle University.
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce that registration is now open for
"Revisiting Star Studies", a major three-day international conference on film stardom.
This conference aims to reassess some of the dominant models in star
studies, to identify under-researched areas in film stardom, and to
generate new critical paradigms. In particular we will explore critical
models that are more appropriate to address non-Hollywood stardom, including
that of Asia, Europe and Latin America.
Keynote speakers:
Yingjin Zhang (University of California at San Diego)
Neepa Majumdar (University of Pittsburgh)
Stephanie Dennison (University of Leeds)
Keynote panel led by Martin Shingler and Susan Smith (University of Sunderland)
Ginette Vincendeau (Kings College, London)
Pam Cook (University of Southampton)
A full programme including over 50 speakers from 12 different countries
is now online, along with the information on travel, accommodation, and PG bursaries.
For further details and to register for the conference, please go to:

Hoping to see you in June at Newcastle!
