The Department of English Language and Literature will be organizing seminars and inviting speakers in the field of literature as well as related fields in the 2017-2018 academic year. The seminar series is called “Edges: Seminar Series in English Studies”, as the focus of the talks will be on challenging the boundaries of canonical studies and exploring divergent possibilities in literature and the humanities. We are interested in creating a medium for interdisciplinary conversation; strengthening collaboration among academics working in different institutions and/or different fields; and introducing current debates, ideas, issues, writers, artists or thinkers.
