Dear List Members,
Please note that the deadline for this year's PG CWWN conference 'Time
& Space in Contemporary Women's Writing' has been extended to **1st
May 2011** and is now fast approaching. The PG CWWN Steering Group
would be grateful if you could advertise the event as widely as
possible among fellow postgraduates, your supervisees and your
colleagues (see revised CFP poster attached). We welcome submissions
which relate to the conference theme in the widest possible sense and
encourage postgraduates from across disciplines (including Modern
Languages, English, Drama and Creative Writing) to submit their
proposals.
Thanks to a successful RCUK Roberts Fund bid we will be able to offer
a significant number of travel bursaries and low registration fees.
Registration fees will include a generous conference dinner, buffet
lunch and wine reception for all delegates.
Our keynote speakers will include Prof. Ann Heilmann (University of
Hull) and Gwyneth Lewis (Poet & Writer). We are also pleased to
announce the addition of an early career development workshop on
"Grant Applications & Academic Careers", to be held by Prof. Mark
Llewellyn (University of Strathclyde).
(N.B. Unfortunately, the planned performance of "Vanessa and Virginia"
has now been cancelled.)
We do hope you will join us in September for what promises to be
another exciting PG CWWN event! Please see the attached poster for the
call for papers and circulate as widely as possible. If you have any
questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch via email at
[log in to unmask] or visit our new website at www.pgcwwn.org.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Very best wishes,
The PG CWWN Steering Group
Theresa Jamieson, Nadine Muller, Claire O'Callaghan, Alex Pryce and
Amy Rushton
