AAASS 2010 panel: "'Surplus History': responses to the Yugoslav wars in film and literature"

[antje postema]

Hello, all.
I'm organizing a panel which investigates various artistic responses  
to the Yugoslav wars of 1991-2001. This topic is broadly conceived,  
and intentionally so, in order to offer many points for analysis and  
both historical and artistic perspectives.

Current papers deal with 1) Yugoslav film criticism and psychoanalysis  
and 2) the wartime poetry of Semezdin Mehmedinović. We are looking for  
at least one other person interested in giving a paper on this topic  
and welcome those writing from any humanistic background. We are also  
seeking a panel chair and discussant.

Please contact me off-list within the next few days with paper ideas,  
or if you would be willing to fill any of the chair/discussant roles.  
Thanks very much.

Yours,
