Monika Dix replied to the topic MLA 2016 Austin: Panel Ideas? in the forum
East Asian Languages and Literatures to 1900 on MLA Commons 11 years, 1 month agoI also support the idea of women’s presence and writing in the premodern canon. How about something like “women, agency, and literary production (“literary arts” if you think about music, drama, etc.) in premodern East Asia”???
Just a thought that we can discuss more in Vancouver.

* Between page and stage: performance literature in premodern east asia
* women and the premodern canon
* music and literature
* reading asian religious texts as literature

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
