[Andalusi Studies] CFP: “Translating Genres: Arabic Prose and European Literatures” (10-13 May: Kalamazoo)

[David Wacks]

*CFP: “Translating Genres: Arabic Prose and European Literatures” (10-13
May: Kalamazoo)*



Papers are being sought for “Translating Genres: Arabic Prose and European
Literatures,” a panel sponsored by the University of Minnesota Center for
Medieval Studies to be held at the
53rd International Congress on Medieval Studies, Western Michigan
University, Kalamazoo MI (10-13 May 2018)

This panel welcomes papers that explore various aspects of the genesis,
impact, and legacy of medieval Arabic prose written in Europe (especially
in areas of intense contact such as the Iberian Peninsula, Sicily, and
France). Of particular interest are approaches that consider Arabic and
European prose works--such as maqāmāt, historical chronicles, didactic
collections, or frame-tale narratives--in the larger context of dialogue
across faiths, linguistic traditions, and geopolitical boundaries.

Contact Emma Snowden (snowd030 at umn.edu) and Mario Cossío Olavide (
cossi009 at umn.edu) for more information and submissions. Proposals should
include a 300-word abstract with paper title, one-page CV, and any media
requirements. Deadline: September 10th, 2017.
