University of Warwick, 6-7 November 2015

Keynote Speaker: Susan Gillman (University of California, Santa Cruz)

This symposium aims to be a 'state-of-the-field' event that brings together researchers, writers, teachers and students to discuss the most pressing topics and concepts currently animating nineteenth-century American literary and cultural studies.

The symposium will be organised around a series of 'keyword' sessions. These sessions will allow those working in the field to share perspectives and debate the significance of the keyword in question: its meanings and implications, its challenges and problems, and how it informs and shapes our collective understanding of the American nineteenth century.
