Call for Papers
Stay Tuned for the CFP for LCLC53
Our first call for papers will be issued in spring 2025. To receive updates and conference announcements, please contact lclc@lousiville.edu to join our mailing list.
The Louisville Conference on Literature & Culture invites critical & creative papers and full panel discussions about literature from the 20th and 21st centuries. Applicants may submit papers that connect to other art forms and academic fields.
The conference also welcomes creative submissions, such as literary compositions, videos, or hybrid genres, as well as critical-creative submissions exploring poetics, crafts, or writing practices. We encourage proposals that bring together people from different universities or organizations, with varying levels of experience in academia, and from various fields of study.
Submissions are accepted in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Hebrew, and Italian. Panels involving global literature and culture in other languages are encouraged.
