(Northeast Modern Language Association) Convention in Toronto – April 30 – May 3, 2015.

This panel seeks submissions that explore American and Canadian literature of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as a transnational site for studying the creation and publication of texts in North America. The panel welcomes a range of critical approaches which may include topics such as publishing opportunities and copyright issues; alignments and contrasts in literary streams such as local color realism; transnational literary relationships, either personal or influential, among others. Please contact rbode@trentu.ca if you have questions.

Submission is online on the NeMLA website: 250-300 word abstract and a brief biography. NeMLA has a user-based system to accept and track abstract submissions. In order to submit an abstract using the button for a CFP entry, you must sign up with NeMLA and log in. Using this new system, you can manage your personal information and review and update your abstract following submission. Signing up is free, and you only have to do it once.

If you have questions about signing up, or if you encounter difficulties using the site, email websupport@nemla.org for assistance.

Full call for papers is available at www.nemla.org
