In the word "trans-formations", the prefix "trans-" invites us to reflect on changes (from one place to another, from one medium to another, from one genre to another...) The notion of transformation thus prompts us to examine borders, boundaries, limits, even crossings that lead to new experiences, new ways of considering the world from a common heritage- questioning it, re-evaluating, and re-imagining it.

BAAS Annual Conference 2023

Keele University Keele

BAAS is delighted to invite submissions for the 67th annual British Association for American Studies conference at Keele University, which will be held between April 12 and April 14, 2023.

Beyond research, we are interested in receiving session proposals that address American Studies pedagogy, “impact” and “knowledge exchange,” and the shape and future of the discipline. Along these lines, BAAS welcomes panels that include […]
