The Fairy Tale after Angela Carter
As such, the primary focus will be the critical and creative legacy of Carter’s work as writer, critic, editor and translator of fairy tales. Fairy-tale studies is an inherently interdisciplinary field, one in which there is a mutually enriching relationship between literary-historical scholarship and various forms of creative practice. The aim of the conference will be to stage and explore this relationship as energetically as possible; to assess the state of current critical and creative practice, as well as to pinpoint future directions for writing and research.
The deadline for abstracts is 3 November 2008. Jack Zipes will be speaking. The conference is in the UK.
