To Whom It May Concern:
This CFP may be of interest to people on your list, and I would be
very interested in presentations on films in our periods of interest. I
hope to hear from some interested parties and perhaps hear some
interesting presentations. Thank You, Linda J. Holland-Toll.

BANG, BOOM, BUST AND BANG (AGAIN)
> THE SPACE BETWEEN: PRECURSORS AND AFTERMATHS, 1920 - 1945
>
This interdisciplinary conference will focus on "the space between," the
> period in time defined by the book-ends of World Wars I and II.
> Appropriate topics will include, but will not be limited to, ways in
> which literary and historical movements such as Futurism, Modernism,
> The Roaring Twenties, The Great Depression, the rise of Facism, and
> Isolationism as well as the World Wars are reflected in the texts of
> > the times. Papers will be solicited in such fields as European and
> > American art, film studies, history, literature, modern languages and
> > philosophy. Of special interest are such fields as the rise of genre
> > fiction, war literature, women's studies, ethnic and diversity
> > literature, and critical approaches which utilize new historicism,
> > feminism, and cultural literature. We are also interested in papers
> > which offer current critical interpretations of the ways in which these
> > events reflect causalities; i.e., in what ways does World War I shape
> > not only the rise of Facism but World War II as well, or in what ways
> > does the disillusionment of the Great War shape the literature of both
> > the Roaring Twenties and the Great Depression.
> Abstracts must be received by February 15, 1997 and should be no longer than
