Message 1: Signposts of Fictionality
|
Date: 14-Feb-2007
From: David Gorman <dgormanniu.edu>
Subject: Signposts of Fictionality
Full Title: Signposts of Fictionality
Date: 27-Dec-2007 - 30-Dec-2007
Location: Washington, DC, USA
Contact Person: David Gorman
Meeting Email: dgormanniu.edu
Linguistic Field(s): Ling & Literature
Call Deadline: 10-Mar-2007
Meeting Description:
Discussions of linguistic or other conventional means of indicating that a
stretch of discourse might be fictional.
Discussions solicited of linguistic or other conventional means used to indicate
that a stretch of discourse is fictional. Discussion of such markers can also
address how they can be defeated and otherwise exploited by narrative writers,
obviously: the working assumption will be that there is no device that, of
itself, Guagantees the fictional status of the discourse in which it appears. --
Or perhaps there is? Since this question stands at the frontier of current
research, it needs a thorough discussion. Inaugurating one is the goal of the
panel. Proposals mixing generalities with multiple examples will be preferred.
Critiques of previous treatments are also pertinent.
Proposals (300-500 words) by 10 March to David Gorman (dgormanniu.edu). A short
CV or the equivalent will be helpful, too, but what I really need to know is
whether or not you are an MLA member.
