Crafts of World Literature Conference

Crafts of World Literature is a three-day conference which seeks to realign the approach taken by scholars in Postcolonial and World Literature studies towards the literatures which they read and interpret, fixing at the centre of the discussion a close attention to the techniques and crafts of writing. This does not entail turning away from political and social considerations or a return to unhistorical formalisms, but exploring ways of reading that overcome the apparent antinomy between literary technique and historical content.
