The Modernist Studies Association New Modernisms II 12-15 October 2000 The University of Pennsylvania CALL FOR PANEL AND SEMINAR PROPOSALS A return to modernism at the end of the millennium is not a farewell but a new beginning. Susan Stanford Friedman In its 1999 inaugural conference, described by The Chronicle of Higher Education as giving new life for modernism, the Modernist Studies Association created a forum wherein scholars, poets, musicians and artists could contribute to this ongoing revitalization. Modernist studies is reemerging as a dynamic and complex field, hospitable to interdisciplinary, international and multicultural approaches and energized by recent work in race, class, gender and sexuality. New Modernisms II convenes at the University of Pennsylvania, and will incorporate the urban diversity of Philadelphia. Our plenary sessions will emphasize the arts, and performance, but our call for panel and seminar proposals remains open.
