Subject: Diaspora/Diasporas: Cross-cultural Ibero-Caribbean Texts and Context

 
Editors: Irene M. F. Blayer (PhD), Brock University; Jo-Anne Ferreira (PhD),

We envision this edited collection to be interdisciplinary and
multidimensional, thus incorporating a set of diasporic areas of research
within the Ibero-Caribbean context. Chapters are double-blind peer refereed.
An invitation to submit a paper in no way guarantees that the paper will be
published; this is dependent on the review process. Unpublished and original
papers, in English, Portuguese, Spanish, or French are welcome.

Proposals that treat other topics not included below but that are of thematic
relevance are welcome.

Language and Linguistics
- Bilingualism and multilingualism
- Ethnography of language
- Language, dislocation, and exile
- Language and cultural identity
- The economics of language policy in immigration
- Translation and the trials of identity
- Textualized identity
- Oral vs. written narratives

Interdisciplinary areas
- Storying the Ibero-Caribbean diaspora
- Cultural histories in the context of diasporas and globalization
- Place, history and collective memories / Memory and witness
- Testimonies, diaries, chronicles, letters, autobiographies
- Migration and identity: the role of geographical place
- The diasporic imaginary: Self in the textual narrative
- Interfacing literary dialogues
- Circulation and reception of diaspora literature
- Material and non-material culture
- Cross-generational narratives/ diaries, chronicles, letters
- Cross-generational narratives
- Re-imagining Ibero-American Insular spaces/worlds
- Sociology and psychology of the migrant experience
- Tradition and social change
