TRANS\/QUEER GENDER AND NARRATIVE FORM<\/strong>
\n15TH, 22ND AND 29TH APRIL 2021<\/p>\n

KEYNOTE SPEAKERS:
\nSUSAN LANSER, BRANDEIS UNIVERSITY, US
\nTRISH SALAH, QUEEN\u2019S UNIVERSITY, CAN<\/p>\n

Since the first interventions in feminist narratology in the 1980s, the importance of gender as a contextual aspect of cultural productions has been firmly established in the study of narrative form. The interpretation of formal features such as narrative voice, poetic structure, temporality, genre and medium is inevitably influenced by the gender of those who produce, experience or are represented by texts. At the same time, queer and trans studies have established methodologies for approaching embodiment, ethics, social structures and cultural politics. This symposium brings together scholars working at the intersection of form and queer\/trans gender in order to foster new approaches to the relationship between embodied identities and texts.<\/p>\n
