ALA 2022 (Chicago)

The William Carlos Williams Society will host two panels at the American Literature Association’s 33rd Annual Conference, Chicago, IL, May 26-29, 2022 

Panel 1 William Carlos Williams, Modernism, and the Little Magazines

We welcome proposals focused on Williams’s essays, reviews, and editorial contributions, most especially Williams and Poetry magazine. How did Williams’s publications and/or contributions to periodicals define, shape, or challenge literary modernism? 

Panel 2 New Directions: Williams Studies in the Twenty-First Century

We invite proposals on any aspect of Williams studies. We are especially interested in new approaches or directions in the study of Williams in the twenty-first century.

Submit 500-word abstract to Mark C. Long (mlong@keene.edu) by January 25, 2022. For further information on the conference, consult the web page of the American Literature Association Annual Conference
