CfP: ACLA seminar on performativity

Dear colleagues,
I am organizing the following session at next year's ACLA in Washington D.C. (March 7-10, 2019) with a colleague working on Haitian literature. Our goal is to put early modern and modern scholars working on polemic / performativity into dialogue, and with that, I would like to invite any interested colleagues to kindly submit a proposal via the ACLA portal between this coming Thursday, August 30 and September 20, 2018. Details on the call can be found through the following link:
 

 
For those who haven't yet attended an ACLA conference, the seminar format works really well for engaging ideas more deeply over several days, and for creating an environment in which to develop and "test out" new projects.
 
Please feel free to reach out with any questions: kal397@nyu.edu.
 
With all good wishes for the coming academic year,
Katie
