About the program:

We are looking for individual or collaborative contributions to "Immolations: Queer Theory and Environmental Destruction," a panel to be presented at the 2019 conference of the Association for the Study of Literature and Environment (UC Davis, June 26-30). Please submit a brief abstract via Submittable (https://asle.submittable.com/submit/126655/immolations-queer-theory-and-...) prior to December 15.

For centuries, the study of time was one of the main academic interests in the field of Humanities. However, in the second half of the 20^thcentury, most scholars and philosophers shifted their focus to the question of space. This, termed “spatial turn” by Soja in 1989, encouraged the foundation of new approaches and perspectives whose main goal was to elucidate the “spatiality” (Tally, 2013) of beings as a result of their interaction with their physical surroundings.

Submission deadline extended to December 1, 2018.
