International Allegory Symposium
Type: Calls For Papers [View all]
Posted by: University of California, Santa Cruz
Deadline: 03/01/13
The German Research Foundation (DFG) will sponsor an international symposium on Alle-gory at Villa Vigoni, Lake Cuomo, Italy, on April 23-27, 2014. Papers are invited from a variety of disciplines, including—but not restricted to—literature, art history, classics, visual culture, film studies, philosophy, theology, music, and theatre. Each paper should address the problem of allegory at a specific historical conjuncture, and draw out the theoretical implications of the analysis. The languages of the conference will be German and English; all participants should be able to follow discussions in both.
In particular, the symposium aims at resuming and developing the discussion of allegory in the wake of Walter Benjamin and Paul de Man.
