Call For Papers

Call for Papers: The 3rd Annual Lecture on Exile in Comparative Literature and the Arts, 26-29 November 2020, Constanta, Romania - ALECLA 2020

http://www.anticusmulticultural.org/alecla

Taking place in the ancient city of Tomis where poet Ovid was exiled, this year the Annual Lecture on Exile in Comparative Literature and the Arts – ALECLA 2020, is keeping up with the frontline of COVID-19.
The conference includes plenary sessions, workshops, round-table discussions, and other events. Much of the program will be self-generated by the seminar organizers and paper submitters, faculty and/or graduate students who will propose seminars and papers via our web pages.

Organizer
Anticus Multicultural Association in conjunction with its partners.

Dates of the Conference
The conference will take place between November 26th and November 29th, 2020.

Venue
Constanta, Romania. We are committed to assessing the situation and not canceling this conference, but as we deal with COVID-19, you should be prepared to follow alternative conferencing solutions.

Theme
This year, we are calling for papers that examine any aspect of „Earth, Forest, Water, Air Protection in the Art and Stories of Forgotten Cultures.” Our conference will focus on the significance of the traditional knowledge, beliefs, stories, fairy tales, and arts for the environment, climate change, sustainable development, peace-building, reconciliation, and good governance and the critical risks confronting local cultures.

Disciplines
Disciplines and perspectives are not limited, we aim to create dialogues exceeding the boundaries of the literary, artistic, and philosophical matrix. We, therefore, encourage adherents of environment, climate, literature, language, anthropology, psychology, history, biology, human geography, film studies, art, computer science, political science, physics, and all other areas of study, to feel welcome in not only attending this conference but also in submitting a seminar proposal or a paper.

Language
While the plenary sessions will be held in English, panels can be held either in English, Romanian, or Tatar (or its related Central Asian languages).

Structure
We welcome proposals for (1) entire panels, (2) individual papers, and (3) poster presentations.

1.Organized panels
The Program Committee approves pre-arranged and open panels. Most papers are grouped into twelve-person panels that meet two hours per day for three days of the lecture to foster extended discussion. Some eight-person (or smaller) seminars meet just the first two days of the conference. Depending on space availability, we may also consider accepting a limited number of one-day seminars, especially if they are innovative either in presentation format or in terms of theme. The only restriction is that no panel may have more than 50% of graduate students, and none may have more than two participants from the same institution.
Please submit your abstract of no more than 500 words on our webpage at
