Austrian Writers Confront the Past
1945-2000
An International Conference at the University of Pennsylvania
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
April 12-14, 2002
Current politics in Austria have rekindled worldwide interest in the
ways Austrian writers have (or have not) confronted the past,
especially the years between 1934 and 1945. This conference, co-
sponsored by the University of Pennsylvania and the Center for
Austrian Studies at the University of Minnesota, will present a
forum for assessing the contributions of Austrian writers and
intellectuals since 1945 to a critical accounting of past and present
extremism.
We invite proposals for papers, panels, and roundtables. The
organizers are interested in a broad spectrum of arguments and will
provide enough time for discussion.
Proposal deadline: November 1, 2001
Notification date: December 1, 2001
Each proposal should be accompanied by:
- a 200-word abstract
- a short vita with information about the present position or affiliation
- technology requested for the presentation
- contact information
Proposals for whole panels must include abstracts for each
participant. Please indicate whether you are also interested in
being a moderator or commentator in another panel.
