The Cultural Studies Association (U.S.) will hold its second annual
conference at Northeastern University in Boston on May 5-9, 2004. The
Cultural Studies Association provides a forum for scholars of Cultural
Studies, in all its diverse manifestations, to exchange their work and
ideas across disciplinary lines and institutional locations.
The Association welcomes proposals for panels or for individual papers
from all areas of Cultural Studies (including but not limited to
literature, history, sociology, geography, anthropology,
communications, popular culture, cultural theory, queer studies,
critical race studies, feminist studies, postcolonial studies, media
and film studies, material culture studies, performance and visual
arts studies).
In order to be considered, each proposal must contain a cover sheet
with name(s), paper and/or panel title(s), affiliation(s), and e-mail
and snail mail addresses. All proposals must be received no later than
December 1, 2003. The program will be published on February 15. Paper
and panel proposals should be no more than 300 words in length and
should be sent to .
As part of the conference a special series of panels will be devoted to
the concept of Persona. Persona deals with the presentation of the
public self and its articulation both in everyday activities and
mediated constructions. We encourage the submission of papers that
address this topic. Key areas may include celebrity, leadership &
display, fame, the role of recognition, sexual/gender/ethnic identity,
etc. Those wanting to have their papers considered for the Persona
panels, should indicate their interest by addressing their abstracts
directly to P. David Marshall, Chair, Department of Communication
Studies, Northeastern University via email only:
Registration and hotel information will be available on our web-site
soon.
