CALL FOR PAPERS
Even though Lolita is one of the most studied works by Nabokov, its
many facets and double-bottoms have not yet been completely explored. As
Brian Boyd underscored in Nice, "Lolita is easily Nabokov’s best-known
book, and seems likely to remain so. But it also seems to me the least
adequately known of his major works." (Cycnos, 24:1).
In order to further our knowledge of this novel and of its influence
within Nabokov's fiction and outside of it, we invite papers between
5,000 and 10,000 words that engage with, but are not limited to, the
following topics:
- Motifs in Lolita: annotation and interpretation
- Intertextual patterns in Lolita
- Arts in Lolita
- Popular culture in Lolita
- Lolita reinterpreted in film, music, visual arts: the questions of
adaptation, with special focus on Kubrick's movie
- Lolita in relation to other Nabokovian works (and especially The
Original of Laura)
Please send 300-word proposals (attached as a .doc-file or a
.rtf-file) together with a short biographical note to
marie.bouchet@univ-tlse2.fr.
Deadline for submissions: June 31, 2010.
Papers will be published in Miranda, a peer-reviewed online academic
journal (ISSN 2108-6559):
http://www.miranda-ejournal.eu/1/miranda/index.xsp
Proposals are due June 31, 2010. The results of papers selection
will be communicated to authors by July 7, 2010.
Final papers are due August 31, 2010.
Online publication is planned for the end of November 2010.
Do not hesitate contacting me for further information,
Looking forward to reading you,
