After the Berlin Wall: Rethinking Contemporary Russian and East European Writing
    This panel seeks papers that examine the work of Russian and East European writers active during and after the events of 1989 and the way these authors have addressed the cultural and sociopolitical changes in the region, in a diverse variety of creative and analytical genres, from poetry to blogging. Please submit proposed paper topics and brief abstracts, along with your contact information, to Vitaly Chernetsky at chernev at muohio.edu . 

Please include with your abstract:

It would be great to have good representation of Slavic/East European literatures and cultures at the convention, so I and the fellow panel organizers look forward to receiving your abstracts.
