East Asian Languages and Literatures after 1900 on MLA Commons 11 years, 2 months agoDear Kathyrn,
Thank you very much for posting this CFP! Please do make clear in the topic title, though, that this is NOT a CFP for the MLA 2016 convention. Currently, Commons does not have a good way of categorizing different topics so it’s important to include as much information in the title as possible.
Very best,
Melek

I already serve on the Contingent Labor for the Profession Committee so I’m not sure how that would affect me serving here. That’s a committee not a forum so I do not…[Read more]

The introduction provides a nice overview of this trend, at least in England, between about 1485 and 1660. Another source is the series, The Oxford History of…[Read more]
