THE FOURTH SYMBIOSIS CONFERENCE,
"ACROSS THE GREAT DIVIDE",
EDINBURGH, 18–21 JULY 2003.
Like the parent journal, Symbiosis: A Journal of Anglo-American
Literary Relations, the conference invites papers on all aspects of
literary and cultural exchange between the British Isles and the
Americas. "Across the Great Divide" is timed to coincide with a
major exhibition of the same title at the National Museum of
Scotland. The exhibition will investigate the impact of Scottish
emigration from Scotland to North America on emigrants and
the indigenous people they encountered. The meeting of
distinctive cultures and exploration of the clashes and fusions
which followed will be themes of both the exhibition and the
conference. This should be an occasion for productive dialogue
between scholars of literary and material culture.
