At the M/MLA (Midwest Modern Language Association) annual convention, November 7-10, 2013 in Milwaukee WI, we are convening a Special Session, “Bridging Art and Scholarship, in Theory and Practice,” with a discussion over papers / roundtable format.
Our lovely scholar-artist panelists are Caroline Carlsmith, The Romanticist Research Group of New York University (Veronica Goosey, Omar Miranda, and Randall Sessler), Sarah Heston, and Koala Yip. They have produced fascinating research, and we’re looking forward to our discussion!
