The Comparative American Ethnic Literature session covers a wide variety of topics regarding multi-ethnic texts, relationships between multi-ethnic writers, and/or connections among ethnic and religious communities. While proposals may engage with the conference theme of “Palimpsests: Memory and Oblivion,” the session is open to broad interpretations and explorations of the field, including considerations of historical period, geographic area, genre (including film and music), gender and sexuality, bi- and multi-lingual texts, and so on.
