CFP for Association for the Study of Literature and Environment (ASLE) 2023 Conference on “Reclaiming the Commons”
PAMLA is proud to announce that our friends at The Association for the Study of Literature and Environment (ASLE) has announced its next biennial conference on July 9-12, 2023 in Portland, Oregon, on the theme of “Reclaiming the Commons.” The conference will be held jointly with The Association for Environmental Studies and Sciences (AESS) and will include opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration, networking, and professional development with a variety of sessions sponsored by both organizations. ASLE seeks proposals for scholarly papers and panels, creative work, posters, collaborative work projects, and other forms of scholarly engagement that approach literature, cultural artifacts, infrastructures, geographies, watersheds, borderwaters, atmospheres, and oceans as methods for reclaiming the commons and instilling and motivating a politics of care in our time. We also seek proposals exploring how the work of the environmental humanities can become more culturally and politically impactful in these ways.
