Call for Proposals Open for DFW19!

The Call for Proposals for DFW19 is now Open!  This year, we have major five categories - in all categories, we particularly encourage studies of the influences that drove Wallace's writing, including (but not limited to) postmodernism, philosophy, psychology, economics, future media forms, and others.  We also welcome roundtable discussions that will encourage more open-ended audience participation in the discussion.

• DFW Studies: presentations specifically addressing the work of David Foster Wallace
• Literary Studies: presentations examining works of contemporary writing from the 1950's onward.
• Arts and Culture: presentations that consider the directions of contemporary society, particularly in relation to arts, literature, and media.
• Pedagogy: presentations and discussions on introducing Wallace, fostering writing skills, or teaching other aspects of literature to today's students.
• Creative Writing: readings of original works in a variety of genres.
