“Rather than taking it for granted that a work gains its meaning in relation to a historical or political context that is being assumed by the critic, why not insist on its potential to transform what counts as a relevant context?” (Rita Felski)
Given the chaos attending the beginning of the fall semester, we're extending the deadline for submissions to the eighth biennial conference of C19: The Society of Nineteenth-Century Americanists, "The End," to be held March 14-16, 2024 in Pasadena, CA, until Friday, September 15, 2023. If you already submitted a proposal, we're looking forward to reading it. If you're scrambling to finish one, take a breath. If you haven't submitted one, there is still time to put something together, and we hope you'll consider doing so.
