*Theorising the Popular*
Liverpool Hope University
*June 28th-29th 2016*
The Popular Culture research group at Liverpool Hope University *welcome
papers from academics and graduate students* for its sixth annual
international conference, 'Theorising the Popular'. Its aim is to
demonstrate the intellectual originality, depth and breadth of ‘popular’
disciplines, as well as their academic relationship with and within
‘traditional’ subjects. The group breaks down disciplinary barriers and
challenges academic hierarchies.
We would especially welcome papers in the following areas, although we
invite proposals from all disciplines. As well as papers from established
and early career academics, we encourage proposals from graduate students:
• Film
• TV
• Music
• Drama & Participation
• Gender:Feminism/Femininities/Masculinities/Queering/Sexualities/Representations
of the Body
• Literature/Fiction
• Language/Linguistics
• Fan Cultures
• Comedy
• Politics
• Sport
• Media/Communications
• Business Studies
Papers should be 20 minutes in length. Please send abstracts of 300 words
to Dr Jacqui Miller [log in to unmask] by *Thursday 31st March, 2016*.
