4th International Conference on Language, Literature, and Culture - B/Orders Unbound: Transgressing the Limit in Arts and Humanities
7-8 May 2015
Isparta, Turkey

Keynote Speaker: Prof.Dr.Abdulrazak Gurnah(University of Kent)

English studies have flourished like rhizome involving a wide range of theoretical framework from different disciplines like education, linguistics, psychology, sociology, folklore and anthropology, translation studies, cultural studies, communication, teaching and learning pedagogy, politics etcetera, thereby making its growth in multiple axes. This experience of a plurality of contact zones creates spaces of liminality that are relational and at the same time open to the questioning of any kind of borders for the interdisciplinary approach. Avtar Brah defines borders as “arbitrary dividing lines that are simultaneously social, cultural and psychic; territories to be patrolled against those whom they construct as outsiders, aliens, the Others; forms of demarcation where the very act of prohibition inscribes transgression” and spaces in which “claims to ownership” are contested, “defended and fought over” (194). Borders are more than lines cutting across maps; rather, they are wide swaths of ambiguity and reversibility where all essentializing distinctions and discourses are broken down and reassembled.

The theme of border opens a space for numerous inquiries and conversations about the things that constitute our borders – socially, psychologically, politically, culturally, academically, etc. – as well as the ways in which those borders are constructed, deconstructed, crossed, challenged, circumvented, diminished and redrawn. The theme also encourages us not only to think about our borders but also to think across them in the hopes of opening spaces for dialogue and disagreement that may in turn amend our sense of these borders.
“International Conference on Language, Literature, and Culture - B/Orders Unbound: Transgressing the Limit in Arts and Humanities” intends to blur the limits of conventional discourses and approaches, and features densely theoretical and analytical writing that focuses on the aspects of English language and literature in any or all possible contexts, employing interdisciplinary approach to address / approach the research problems with methods of and insights borrowed from multiple disciplines.
