WORD & IMAGE CROSSOVERS
An international and interdisciplinary conference

This conference will explore the possible interactions between word and image in literature and its adaptations and visual translations. We welcome examinations of both traditional and experimental forms of word and image crossovers with an emphasis on the visual aspect.

1/ illustrated fiction/non-fiction,
2/ picturebooks,
3/ comics, graphic novels,
4/ adaptations of literary works (film, performing arts, video games, other types of visual translation)
5/ experimental literature, literature and new media (interactive literature, digital poetry, hypertext),
6/ visual poetry (concrete, shape poetry)
Please submit an abstract of 300 words for twenty-minute papers (with the title of the conference section clearly indicated) and a short CV to [log in to unmask] no later than 15th February 2014 for consideration. Participants will be notified by 15th March 2014.
