Meeting Description:

The conference on “Inter/Dis-connections of the Prefix ‘Post’ in Contemporary
Literary, Linguistic and Cultural Studies (19-20 October,2022)” organized by
the English Department, Forman Christian College (A Chartered University),
Pakistan is an international peer-reviewed scholarly event and the first of
its kind to explore the rich legacy of the ‘post’ in our contemporary
aesthetics and culture. This conference welcomes original research
contributions on the multiple interventions associated with the term ‘post’.

The prefix ‘post’ has dominated most of the academic inquiries in contemporary
culture, theory, and philosophy. Roland Barthes, Jacques Derrida, Michel
Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Judith Butler, Jean Baudrillard and Julia Kristeva
initiated and expanded upon the implications of this prefix for comprehending
the multidimensional complexity of the ever-expanding world and discourses
around us. The expression ‘post’ has now become the staple of the academic
litany in connection with WW I & II, Modernism, Colonialism, 9/11, Feminism,
Dualism, Humanism, Trauma, COVID, and so on.

The increasing prevalence of the prefix ‘post’ to describe and comprehend
contemporary reality at this point in time calls for renewed, invigorating,
and innovative approaches to seek answers to the questions such as:
- Why is there an increasing trend to use the prefix ‘post’ with almost all
the existing theories and socio-political and historical events?
- What does it add or subtract from a philosophy?
- How does it enrich or snatches away the fundamentals of a theory?
- How does it make or unmake a theory?
- How is it relevant for describing our contemporary realities?
- What makes it resonate so aptly with most of the existing theoretical
perspectives?
- How and when did it become an inevitable phenomenon in the current scholarly
research?
- How does it provide a rich and diverse set of tools to write a creative work
and critically analyse it?
- What is the future of this prefix: is it going to be obsolete at some point
in time?

This conference aims to bring together diverse discursive discourses emanating
in relation to the prefix ‘post’. We invite innovative and original
contributions which critically evaluate the emerging transformations in the
fields of literature, language and culture according to the praxis of the
‘post’. The conference is interested in enriching dialogue among scholars,
academics, practitioners, and students working in/with numerous movements,
theories, definitions, processes, and alternatives.

The topics may include, but are not limited to: 
- Post WW I & II
- Post-Structuralism
- Post-Modernism
- Post-Dualism 
- Post- Colonialism
- Post-Postcolonialism
- Post-Traumatic
- Post- 9/11
- Post- Feminist
- Post-Human
- Post- Pandemic/ COVID 19
