Meeting Description:

This is the second international conference organised by the Department of
English at East Delta University.


Call for Papers:

For millennia, human civilization has been in a relentless pursuit of
comprehending the relationship between the forces of the natural world and the
human condition. This endeavour has produced a bewildering number of
disciplines amounting to an impressive array of epistemological insights into
the nature of human existence. Scholarly approaches in/(to) Human Sciences,
e.g., philosophy, history, sociology, psychology, literature, language,
linguistics, evolutionary biology, culture, religion, and anthropology
initiate an inquiry into our ever-evolving sociocultural foundations, and in
doing so, redress our sense of place in relation to the scheme of things.

In this age of rapid changes in the socio-cultural fabric, individuals, as
well as communities, are faced with apprehension with regard to their
long-held sense of subjectivity and identity. At this crossroads of tradition
and technology, man and machine, it is in the domain of Human Sciences that we
must launch a critique of the contemporary world. For a wholesome
understanding of the crises and triumphs of modernity, they must be viewed
through the lens of an interdisciplinary approach that lends our critical
inquiry a much-needed equilibrium and reinforces the relevance of the
humanities in a radically transforming world. In addition to instilling
empathy in the much-hardened modern psyche, an intersection of the humanities
and the other sciences adds to the gravity of the liberal arts on the
utilitarian scale in academia.

We are pleased to invite proposals that initiate an interdisciplinary
exploration of questions like:
How did we, humans, come to be the way we are now?
What is it to be human from biological, social, and cultural perspectives?
How do literary and linguistic studies prove to be effective tools for
creating cultural awareness of the changing world?
How do technological advances contribute to shifting socio-cultural
topography?
How are the lasting effects of colonialism and globalisation being
counteracted and appropriated in (re)defining identities?
How do human beings reciprocate with the new normal?
How do we integrate with the confluence of science, religion, culture, and
society, if at all and/or any?
