[Vwoolf] Call for Papers: Outside/rs 2022 Conference

[Marielle O'Neill (1806529) PHD]

Dear All,

I am writing to you on behalf of a group of postgraduate researchers regarding a conference that we are organising for 1 and 2 April 2022 which will be a hybrid of in-person, at the University of Brighton, and online sessions. The conference, entitled Outside/rs 2022 will explore sex, gender, and queerness at the margins of society. The title, of course, resonates with Woolf's 'Outsiders' Society'.

For those who exist in queer, marginal, or dissident relations to normativity in its various guises, the 'outside' is a familiar place. As Virginia Woolf famously noted, to be locked out of or barred from spaces of privilege was, and still is, a common experience for women. And it is also a common experience for queer, trans or LGBTQIA+ people, as well as BIPOC communities, disabled and neurodiverse people, working class and colonised populations, and many others.

The conference will be online on April 1 and in-person on April 2 in Brighton. Delegates will have the choice of attending online or in-person.

We would like to draw your attention to the panel on Queer Bloomsbury. This will be an online panel on Friday, 1 April and will comprise of three presentations (20 minutes each) followed by a half hour discussion/Q&A. The panel will include Madelyn Detloff (Miami University), Jane Goldman (University of Glasgow) and Samson Dittrich (University of Sussex) and will be chaired by Marielle O'Neill (Leeds Trinity University).

The conference is designed to platform postgraduate researchers and community groups. We welcome postgraduate researchers to submit papers on a topic or author of their choice that is relevant to the above issues. Please pass on this information to your students who may be interested in attending the conference or submitting a paper.

The deadline for the submission of papers is 9th January 2022.

Please send abstracts of 300 words to outsiders2022 at gmail.com. Papers will be reviewed anonymously so include personal information i.e., name, institutional affiliation, in your submission email only.

For all enquiries, please email Marielle O'Neill at:
