Call for Paper Proposals
Nineteenth-Century Transatlantic Literary Ecologies
Transatlantic Studies Association annual conference
Northumbria University, Newcastle, UK, 8-11 July 2013

We invite proposals for 20-minute papers approaching nineteenth-century literature from a perspective combining transatlantic and ecocritical scholarship.  We are particularly interested in papers that open a dialogue between transatlantic literary history and/or transatlantic literary theory and any of the following topics in the environmental humanities:  ecocritical theory; critical animal studies; environmental ethics; environmental justice; indigenous ecologies; colonial and postcolonial ecologies; gender and ecology; natural history, etc.

Please send a 300-word abstract and a brief CV by April 30, 2013, to Kevin Hutchings, University of Northern British Columbia ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>); and John Miller, University of Sheffield ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>).
