Event overview
Goldsmiths Literature Seminar Postgraduate Conference
Environments is a one-day conference organised by Goldsmiths, University of London, university of Kent, and university of Essex.
We live in a writing environment. The places we inhabit, our urban and rural surroundings, and how we move through them, have a strong influence on who we are as a people and as a society. This conference hopes to explore the links between texts, environments and identity.
From antiquity to the digital age, many writers, artists and theoreticians have explored the connection between landscapes, society, and self. In the context of this conference, environments can represent places affected as a result of human activity or consciousness. Submissions might engage with texts dealing with a myriad of environments including cityscapes, human habitats, and wild and imagined spaces.
The conference will conclude with a selection of readings and a wine reception.
