Dear Colleagues!

Due to an unexpected withdrawal, our panel at the upcoming ASEEES conference in San Antonio is one paper short. Below is the description of the panel. If you are interested in participating, please email the title and a one-paragraph summary of your paper to Sergey Karpukhin at karpukhin at wisc.edu. 

Vladimir Nabokov and Sexuality

The panel will explore the ways in which Vladimir Nabokov engaged with the concepts of sexuality, gender, sexual orientation and identity. It will also address the relations between the sensory, the sensual, and the sexual in Nabokov's works. The papers included in the paper will discuss Nabokov's use of Blok's imagery in constructing his own notion of femininity; and Nabokov's general response to the age-old challenge of literary descriptions of sex, especially vis-a-vis the classical tradition.

Papers:
"Incognita: Blok's 'Neznakomka' in Nabokov's Ada or Ardor," Megan Race (Yale)
"Vladimir Nabokov and Representations of Sexuality," Sergey Karpukhin (UW-Madison) 

Thank you!
