AAASS panel 2010: New approaches to the sublime

[Alison Annunziata]

Dear Colleagues,



I am organizing a panel entitled "New Approaches to the Sublime" for  
the 2010 AAASS conference. This panel takes the sublime as the focal  
point for examining the intersections of the 18th and 19th, 18th and  
20th centuries.  Specifically, it will look at how the abstract  
concept of the sublime, as it was understood in the 18th century, is  
manipulated, distorted, or inverted in the literature of the later  
centuries.  Special interest in the role of artifice and  
modernization--for instance, optical media, photography and film,  
industry, new flight technology--in the remaking of the sublime.



If you are interested in participating please contact me at

All the best for the New Year!
