Call for papers: Conference on Vladimir Vysotskii in Voronezh

[Krylova, Natalia]

Dear SEELANGers,

I wanted to bring to your attention the announcement (below) of the forthcoming conference on Vladimir Vysotskii, which is to be held in Voronezh (Russia) in the beginning of September. 

As the organizers note in their post, this is a very late notice, but, as a former participant, I may witness that this gathering is definitely worth making the extra effort to adjust your plans and attend if you possibly can. 

This conference has been bringing together enthusiasts (including a number of European re-searchers) from the field of “avtorskaia pesnia” since the early 1980’s. As a result, Voronezh has become a sort of Mekka for any scholar studying Vysot’skii, Galich, Gorodnitskii, or Okudzhava. However, as yet not a single American participant has made a showing at this conference (with the exception of the author of this message, who hardly counts as an American). 

I would strongly recommend that you take advantage of this opportunity if your research lies in the field of Russian song-writing tradition, Russian popular culture of 1960’s – 1970’s, counter-culture in the Soviet era, et cetera.

The conditions at the conference site are going to be rather “Spartan”, but all these little inconveniences will be fully compensated by the real comradery within this group and the wonderful networking opportunities it provides.    

P.S. Better late than never
 I also need to apologize for a glitch-message sent from my mailbox earlier today
 (Too many unnecessary buttons on my key-board!) 

With best wishes,

Natalia V. Krylova
Adjunct Professor of Russian Literature
Department of English and Modern Languages

The conference papers will be eventually published in a collected volume.  (The volume with the previous conference materials has recently been released and is available for ordering).

Include the topic of your panel paper (15 – 20 minutes) or presentation (5 – 10 minutes), as well as a short (up to 5 sentences) abstract.
