Conference Theme: Freedom

CEA 2025 welcomes papers and panels that address our discipline from multiple perspectives and across a wide range of areas, including literary studies, creative writing, rhetoric, composition, technical communication, linguistics, and film. And, in the spirit of Philadelphia, we are especially interested in presentations that incorporate topics related to FREEDOM as it relates to Caribbean literature.

We welcome individual and panel presentation proposals that address Caribbean literature in general, including—but not limited to—the following possible themes:

  • Freedom between disciplines, languages, or generations
  • Freedom regarding races, classes, cultures, regions, genders, or sexualities
  • Cultural or ideological freedom in literary, scholarly, or theoretical works
  • Freedom as construct, form, metaphor, motif, or icon
  • Connections between text and images or sound
  • Freedom regarding theory and practice, reading and writing, writer and audience
  • Academic freedom in teaching and scholarship; faculty and administrators; professors and students
  • Freedom and materiality 

Submission deadline: November 1, 2024. Only one submission per individual, please. Notifications of proposal status will be sent in early December. For more information on how to submit, please see the full CFP at www.cea-web.org
