Seeking participants for ASEEES Panel on Voice Media and Inter-war Literature

[Philipp S. Penka]

Dear all,

We are looking for a third paper as well as a discussant for a 2012 ASEEES
panel on the theme of orality vs. literacy in inter-war literature,
especially in the context of voice media (such as the gramophone,
telephone, film, radio). The two proposed papers examine the role of the
radio in the works of two inter-war Czech authors, Jakub Deml and Karel
Capek. Papers on other national literatures are very welcome, of course.
The third paper might address issues such as: voice media as a literary
theme, literary representations of voice(s) and soundscape(s), wireless
communication, voice in film, texts written specifically for the radio or
phonograph, etc.

Please respond off-list to penka at fas.harvard.edu.

Best wishes,
Philipp Penka and Alexander Groce
Harvard University
