The Spanish Comparative Literature Association (SELGyC) is pleased to announce the II SELGyC POSTGRADUATE AND EARLY CAREER RESEARCHERS CONFERENCE, to be held at the Complutense University of Madrid on 30 November and 1 December 2017. The conference aims mainly, but not exclusively, to bring together postgraduate and early career researchers who are currently working in the various fields of Comparative Literature, and to provide a forum for debate and for dissemination of their work in progress.
Postgraduate and early career researchers are invited to submit original papers for consideration. Those who wish to present a paper must send their proposal (filling out the document available on http://encuentroselgyc2017.weebly.com/comunicaciones.html) before 8 September to iiencjovinv@selgyc.com. The Scientific Committee of the Conference will review and select the submitted abstracts; the authors will be notified of the results before 22 September.
Digital Comparatism
The emergence of new technologies and the mass use of Internet in the last decades revolutionized both the field of literature and of comparatism, in relation to the reading and researching habits as well as to the literary creation. Specifically, the digitalization and the accessibility of texts offer comparative literature new possibilities of research and innovative methodologies. This conference aims to give an opportunity to postgraduate and early career researchers – who started their studies and are doing and will do their research in this new context – to analyze the new phenomena of the digital era, and thereby show thus their vision about the future of literature.
Proposals related to any aspect of digital literature and of comparative literature studied from this new digital context will be welcome. Topics may include but are not confined to:
- Cyber Literature
- The existence and the creation of new digital literary genres
- Intertextuality and intermedia
- Hypertextuality and hypermedia
- The blog phenomenon
- New ways of spreading literature
- The e-book
- Massive digitalization projects
- Electronic tools for research
- Digital reviews
