Futures of Doing Literature
Annual Conference 2025
Research Area 5: Building Digital Communities
The conference will focus on the potentialities, strategies, expectations, challenges and imaginaries for 'doing literature', both as a scholarly practice and as a social, material-aesthetic and performative form of expression, communication and negotiation. We will explore how doing literature enables mediation, critique and action; how it enacts different notions of participation, impact, agency and literary timing, always creating temporalities of its own.
