CONFERENCES AND WORKSHOPS
Southern Humanities Conference - Tides and Time, Ebbs and
Flows
https://www.southernhumanities.org/call-for-papers
Annapolis, MD, January 29- February 1, 2026
For 2026 our conference theme will be “Tides and Time, Ebbs
and Flows.” Hoping to draw inspiration from our oceanside locale, we seek
contributions on a wide range of topics that explore any aspect of the theme,
however it may draw you in. Though each age undergoes its share of
political, economic, and cultural change, our lived experiences of the
contemporary certainly “feel” dynamically powerful, even historical. The
social texture of our present age stretches with each controversy, unprecedented
political shift, and energetic social trend. And yet, the continuities
and communal connections to the past often remind us to keep our presentism in
check and be precise in our assessments of what exactly has altered and how
deeply the alterations have impacted the world around us. The Southern
Humanities Conference invites proposals for papers on any aspect of the theme
“Time and Tides, Ebbs and Flows” broadly conceived. Our conference themes are
meant to be inspiring and prompt reflection, not limiting.
Proposals are due by December 1, 2025,

Archetypes & Myths
October 17 - October 19, 2025, SMU Main Campus, Dallas, TX
Mythmaking permeates both the humanities disciplines and
popular culture. Myths and archetypes often function by simplifying complex
events, histories, and identities into more recognizable, and sometimes
misleading, narratives. From national founding stories to literary tropes, from
cultural stereotypes to regional notions of progress, myths and archetypes
deeply influence how we interpret the past, frame the present, and imagine the
future. This year’s theme asks us to think critically about the role of archetypes
and myths in our respective disciplines: how has mythmaking pervaded the ways
in which we make meaning of our social world?
How do archetypes delineate elements of human experience? We invite you
to consider the roles of both archetyping and mythmaking within the works you
study—be it literary works, historical archives, etc.—as well as how pervasive
disciplinary paradigms shape the ways in which you approach your scholarship.
Submission Deadline: August 29, 2025

Everyday
resistance: Thinking, making, and living in the material world
November 7th 2025l; Location: University of Brighton
What does resistance mean? How can individuals and
communities resist hegemonic social orders? Can resistance occur without new
forms of subjugation, transgression without the (re)institution of new norms?
Does resistance ever have an end goal? These questions are repeated in the
fields of philosophy, political theory, history and beyond. This one-day conference aims to centre
resistance as it is already lived and embodied, including in practices that do
not appear immediately “political”, and through materials and forms of making
historically subjugated.
Questions? Please contact the organisers on

Proposals due July 6th 2025
Climate Havens: Humanistic Perspectives on Resilience,
Migration, and Resources Symposium
University of Rochester and Rochester Institute of
Technology, April 16-17, 2026
As climate risks intensify, the idea of “climate havens”—and
the identification of regions like the Great Lakes as more resilient to
environmental change—raises pressing questions about space, belonging, justice,
resources, and community. This symposium will explore climate havens through
historical, philosophical, artistic, literary, and cultural perspectives,
organized around three central themes: What Is a Haven?, Whose Haven Is It?,
and Climate Havens and Natural Resources.
Submission deadline: August 15
Please submit your questions and papers to
humanities@rochester.edu.
Blue Animal Aesthetics Conference
https://networks.h-net.org/group/announcements/20070646/blue-animal-aesthetics-conference
22-24 October 2025, Nuremberg University of Music
In a time of ecological disruption, multispecies
entanglements, and increasing sensitivity to planetary interdependencies, this
conference invites explorations at the intersection of Blue Humanities,
Human-Animal Studies, and artistic-aesthetic practices. Under the title “Blue
Animal Aesthetics”, we aim to create a space for thinking with and through
water, nonhuman animals, and art. The conference seeks interdisciplinary
contributions that engage with oceanic and aquatic worlds, the politics, ethics
and aesthetics of nonhuman animals, and the role of art, music, literature, and
performance in navigating fluid ecologies and relational thinking in the
Chthulucene.
Please send an abstract (max. 300 words) and a short bio
(max. 150 words) by 01 July 2025 to

Is a Better World Possible? - Solidarity as a
Conversation across Temporalities
https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/arts/hrc/confs/bwp/
A one-day hybrid interdisciplinary conference at the
University of Warwick, Saturday 29th November 2025
We live in an age where lives and livelihoods are constantly
rendered precarious due to various crises in the form of war, political and
economic instabilities, gender disparities, racial exploitation and climate
change. Our times have therefore seen calls for solidarities oriented toward
making a better world possible- a world built around principles of social
justice and equality. ‘Is a Better World Possible?’ will be a one-day hybrid and
interdisciplinary conference exploring solidarity and its relationship with
temporality. This conference aims to excavate the many forms, meanings and
approaches attached to the idea of solidarity, spanning historical
manifestations such as anticolonial national liberation struggles to more
contemporary movements such as ‘Black Lives Matter’ in the US, the feminist ‘Ni
Una Menos’ movement across Latin America, and the ongoing Palestine solidarity
and BDS movement. We anticipate theoretical and praxis-based submissions, which
will bring together scholars, activists and artists, across the fields of
history, political science, literature, philosophy, gender and cultural
studies.
Please submit an abstract of not more than 300 words along
with a short bio-note of 150 words to the organisers, Archana Vinod and Malvika
Nair, at solidarityconference25@gmail.com by June
30, 2025.

Updating Ecocriticism: Perspectives from Gen Z
https://networks.h-net.org/group/announcements/20070107/updating-ecocriticism-perspectives-gen-z
We are looking for a variety of approaches from the
time-tested methods of reading literature and the arts through ecological
lenses to the study of new media forms such as video games, music videos, AI-
or human-created content on social media and online platforms such as Reddit,
Instagram, TikTok, and X. If ecocriticism, having already grown into the wider
field of the environmental humanities, now summons “a new generation” of
knowledge production, then we believe this kind of production must be fed by multiple
perspectives, from medical to digital, embodied to algorithmic, speculative to
scientific. This, we believe, requires a completely new mirror reflecting the
humanities’ ongoing commitment to exploring meaning, imagination, and planetary
ethics in a time of crisis.
To contribute to this edited book as a Gen Z scholar, please
e-mail your chapter proposal of around 250 to 500 words (with 3 to 5 keywords)
and your short biography of 100 words to zgizemyz@gmail.com, bashak@gmail.com,
and filipovalen@gmail.com by 17 November 2025.

Politics of Reshaping Higher Education: Resistance, and
Compliance Strategies and Practices
https://vernonpress.com/proposal/361/45c2bdb2e542eefcc4b5cc7c8c972216
Across the globe, higher education is undergoing profound
transformations in response to shifting political, economic, and social
pressures. These transformations—manifested in policy reforms, managerial
practices, funding models, curriculum restructuring, and labour precarity—are
reshaping the core values and missions of universities. In this context, the
academy has become a contested site where various actors—faculty,
administrators, students, policymakers, and communities—engage in practices of
resistance and compliance. We invite chapter proposals for an international
edited collection that critically examines how higher education institutions
and the individuals within them navigate and negotiate these changes amid
accelerating global uncertainties, political pressures, and technological
shifts. This volume will explore how institutions, educators, students, and
administrators are responding—through strategies of resistance, compliance, and
adaptation—to a complex and often contradictory landscape of reform, crisis,
and innovation.
Proposal submission deadline: 27 July 2025
All proposals must be sent to:

Mobility Regimes
https://www.radicalhistoryreview.org/mobility-regimes/
Scholars of migration have made tremendous strides in
interrogating the structural conditions that impact the ability of people to
move across and within borders and, as crucially, to stay in their homes.
Often, however, these interrogations have led to the mobility and displacement
of peoples being studied in isolation from each other—immigrants as strictly
opposed to refugees, international migrants contrasted with internal migrants,
and so forth. It is of course always paramount to acknowledge the many different
contexts that have shaped particular kinds of migrant experiences in the past
and in the present. This issue will bring together scholars, practitioners and
historically-minded activists from a wide range of subfields and disciplines in
order to make critical connections across the expansive world of migration
studies. Doing so, we hope, will encourage more capacious understandings of
migration.

abstract with title heading to serrano@udel.edu by August 1, 2025.
Dictionary of Gender in Translation
The Dictionary
of Gender in Translation –a project of the International
Research Network-IRN World Gender– is open to new contributions.
Launched on June 18, 2021, this multilingual and online Dictionary seeks to
contribute to the understanding of how concepts and ideas concerning gender,
sexuality and feminism travel and combine in many languages and cultures. The
goal is to shed light on the ways in which these notions are understood in
different linguistic, social, political and cultural contexts, and on how
gender studies have developed in these diverse contexts.
The Dictionary has three interfaces, in French, English, and
Spanish. Entries can be written in any language, but if they are written in a
language other than those of the three interfaces, they must be accompanied by
a translation in French, English, or Spanish.
Please submit a proposal that outlines in about ten lines
the content of the future entry, its format, the authors, and the language(s)
in which it will be written before September 15, 2025 to: umr8238.dictionnairegenre@services.cnrs.fr
‘Sinners' (2025): Critical Approaches to Ryan Coogler’s
Groundbreaking Black Vampiric Horror Film
Sinners is rich with meaning. Coogler was
inspired by his own personal history, including his family’s participation in
the Great Migration and his late uncle James, a native Mississippian, who
loved blues music. In this way–and similar to its Black horror predecessors–Sinners uses
popular genres and a connection to lived experiences to engage discourse and
form critical commentary on issues related to race, class, gender, sexuality,
and spirituality. Some questions to consider regarding textual and
contextual readings of Sinners are: What are the theoretical implications of
Coogler’s take on the Black horror genre?
More pointedly, how does the vampire narrative in Sinners provide a
vehicle for discourse on the impact of anti-Black racism, as well as
colonialism and imperialism, in historical and contemporary contexts? What
tensions, contradictions, and complexities arise from the film’s engagement
with issues related to religion and spirituality?
For your submission, please include completed essay, a
150-word abstract, and a 50–100 word biography by the deadline, May 16, 2026.

Echoes in the Mirror
https://thesoliloquistmagazine.my.canva.site/#submit
The Soliloquist Journal is inviting poems and soliloquies
for its second issue (Summer 2025 issue). Following the introspective depth of
Unfinished Dialogues, our second issue invites soliloquies and poems that
explore duality, reflection, and the fractured self—"Echoes in the
Mirror." Whether through raw confession or surreal metaphor, we want
writing that shatters the glass to reveal what lingers beneath. Submissions may
blur the line between soliloquy and dialogue—after all, a reflection answers.
Submission Deadline for Summer Issue: July 05, 2025

Libraries in Unexpected Places: Library History Round
Table (LHRT) Research Forum 2025
https://uky.zoom.us/meeting/register/nzwF_9ZLT3y_3FWZsKy_mw#/registration
Jul 23, 2025 01:00 PM in CST
Libraries are not confined to traditional institutions; they
exist in a myriad of unexpected places, serving diverse communities in
innovative ways. In this year's Forum we will discuss three unique research
projects dealing with "libraries in unexpected places:"
Jeanie Austin and Emily Jacobson, "Meeting Information
Needs in Sites of Removal: A Historical Look at Carceral Library Services and
Standards"
Jillian Kehoe, "A Library on Land and at Sea:
Overcoming Space Challenges at Maritime College"
Nadine I. Kozak, "Public Library Work in U.S. Business

Dis:connectivity and Globalisation: Concepts, Terms,
Practices
Globalisation is one of the most contested concepts of our
time. From its promise of borderless flows of people, goods and finance in the
1990s, it embodies today almost the opposite: deglobalisation, as tariffs are
erected, borders heavily policed, anti-migration regimes enforced and sanctions
levied. This ‘disconnect’ between promise and realisation is the subject of the
online panel series „Dis:connectivity and Globalisation: Concepts, Terms,
Practices“. The multidisciplinary contributions explore key concepts that
illuminate processes of globalisation from a dis:connective perspective, which
highlights the role of delays and detours, interruptions, resistances and
absences as constitutive of globalisation. The series proposes rethinking
globalisation by redefining the terminology we use to describe and analyse it.
The panel series is at the same time a pre book-launch of the volume
„Dis:connectivity and Globalisation“ which will be published in July 2025.

From Campus to Career: Preparing Work-Ready Grads –
webinar on-demand
https://www.insidehighered.com/events/vendor-webcast/campus-career-preparing-work-ready-grads
As the workforce shifts toward skills-based hiring, colleges
and universities face growing pressure to equip students with more than just
academic knowledge. While students feel confident about what they’ve learned,
many struggle to communicate those skills effectively to employers—and that gap
can make all the difference.
AI and the Future of Higher Education
As generative AI tools become increasingly integrated into
educational settings, the discussion offered a critical space to reflect on
what these technologies mean—not just for teaching and learning, but for
justice, participation, and the broader mission of higher education. This
webinar brought together two visionary thinkers—Alondra Nelson (Institute for
Advanced Study and Center for American Progress) and FI Founder Cathy N.
Davidson—to explore how generative artificial intelligence can reshape the academic
landscape.
