World Literature and the Minor: Figuration, Circulation, Translation

19.10.2020

6–7 May 2021, KU Leuven, Belgium (online event) – The deadline for submission is 15 December 2020.

The conference “World Literature and the Minor: Figuration, Circulation, Translation” will explore the multifaceted meanings of the minor from different disciplinary perspectives—as it is represented in literary texts (figuration), as it inflects patterns of mobility and reception (circulation), and as it marks processes of linguistic and cultural transfer (translation). In doing so, the conference works towards a critical, more inclusive understanding of the minor, both conceptually and methodologically.
