*El Mundo Zurdo: An International Conference on
Anzaldúan Thought and Art and Performance*
Sponsored by
The Society for the Study of Gloria E. Anzaldúa (SSGA) and the Women’s
Studies Institute at the University of Texas at San Antonio
*November 5-7, 2010*
*Call for Proposals*
The Society for the Study of Gloria E. Anzaldúa seeks submission of
proposals for papers, panels of 3-4 papers, roundtables, workshops, or
performances for its First International Conference on the work and life of
Gloria E. Anzaldúa on the fifth anniversary of her passing.
We welcome proposals involving all facets of Anzaldúa’s life and work as
they pertain to the arts– literary, dramatic, plastic, etc—and performance.
The following tracks are merely suggested conceptual groupings for panel and
performance presentations:
· *BORDERS*—explorations of border theory, borderlands ethos and other
concepts of Anzaldúan thought focused on this key concept of her work
· *GENDER AND SEXUALITY STUDIES*—el mundo zurdo and the atravesados, key to
Anzaldúa’s thinking and application of her philosophical work
· *EDUCATION*—pedagogical concerns surrounding her literary and
philosophical works. Some questions that may arise: what are some challenges
of teaching Anzaldúa? How does Anzaldúa’s thought apply to teaching?
· *INTERNATIONAL AND TRANFRONTERA*—The effects of globalization and market
economies on culture. What is the status of Anzaldúa studies at the
international level?
· *SPIRITUALITY*—Explorations of Anzaldúa’s spiritual teachings. How can we
heal the earth and ourselves?
*Guidelines*
