Twentieth Century Literature Conference Louisville, KY 2/23 – 2/25 2006

The International Vladimir Nabokov Society will be sponsoring two panels at
the conference this year:

1. Open panel: Vladimir Nabokov

Papers welcome on any aspect of Nabokov’s work. Preference will be given to
papers that do not discuss _Lolita_.

2. Religion, Spirits, and Spirituality in Nabokov’s Writings

This panel asks for papers that address the presence of religion, spirits,
and/or spirituality in Nabokov’s work.

Areas of interest might include, but are not limited to:

- the presence of spirits or ghosts in Nabokov’s fiction - the idea of the
soul - spirituality and notions of goodness and evil - representations of
spirituality - death and the afterlife - the treatment of religion as an
institution - transcendence

All approaches are welcome. Proposals due September 1, 2005. Please include
your snail and digital mail contact information as well as institutional
affiliation with 250 - 1000 word submission.
