FAQ | Comparative Literature | Escl/Selc 2021 Congress - Rome | Roma When will the Congress take place? Where is the congress venue located? The ESCL 2021 Biennial Congress will take place from the 6th to the 10th September 2021 at Sapienza – University of Rome in Italy (see map on the website), at the Facoltà di Lettere e Filosofia and the Marco Polo Building.....

The aim of this conference is to invite reflections on narrative as a tool for the creation of inclusive communities in European culture, with a focus on a broad range of media (literature, both fictional and non-fictional, including translated literature, films, TV series, graphic novels, videogames) and on all periods, from classical antiquity – in which the grounds for communal thinking were established – to the present day, marked by radical attempts to renegotiate communal identities. We invite, moreover, papers and panels on the part played by criticism, theory, and historiography in envisioning inclusive communities and on the role of translation and circulation of narrative works in Europe. We encourage both narratological readings that highlight the formal language of community-building and political and ideological investigations, comparative or focused on specific contexts.

​Possible topics and areas include, but are not limited to, the following:

Comparative literature, world literature and the identity of Europe

Fiction, national boundaries and European boundaries

Translation and community-making in Europe

Europe between the local and the global

Gender articulations

Gender-inclusive language

The Post-Sovietic euroasiatic space: past inclusions and present exclusions

Ancient and modern traditions: Other perspectives from Caucasian regions and Central Asia

The role of empires in European literary space

Colonial narratives and postcolonial counternarratives

Processes of racialization in Europe
