Subject: Dublin conference on Native American Ritual and Performance


Dear colleagues,
I have been asked to change the dates of the Dublin conference on Native
American Ritual and Perforance because the European Association for  American
Studies changed the dates of their conference in Bordeaux to 22-25 March. The
Dublin conference will now be held on 26 to 28 March so that people can attend
both conferences. See the change in the dates in the call for papers below.
Steve Wilmer

Call for Papers

22nd American Indian Workshop
26-28 March 2002
Trinity College Dublin
The 22nd American Indian Workshop, to be held from 26 to 28 March 2002 at the
School of Drama, Trinity College Dublin, will be devoted to the topic:

Native American Ritual and Performance.

Proposals are especially welcome for papers that discuss:
1. the representation of Native Americans in mass media (film, television,
internet, video games, advertising) and/or in the fine arts (theatre,
performance art, music, dance, graphic art)
2. the relationship between Native American performance and ritual (and drama)
3. literature and/or the arts relating to Native American performance and/or
ritual
4. performance of Native American cultural history (as in Chicano theatre
which employs Aztec and Mayan mythology)
5. the use of performance, including the performance of ritual, by Native
Americans to negotiate their cultural identity vis a vis the dominant culture

This will be an inter-disciplinary conference of interest to scholars of
anthropology, sociology, theatre, film and performance studies, Native
American literature, religious studies and cultural studies. It will focus
primarily on North America but it may also include papers on Central and South
America.

Presentations should not exceed 25 minutes (including the projection of
slides, films, or videos).

In addition, there will be a session that is normally held by the workshop
with reports (20 minutes) on 'Current Research', for which individual papers
may also be proposed.   These may deal, for example, with unusual research
difficulties faced by current scholars or with current trends in scholarship
or with problems of defining the terms Native American and American Indian.

Submit proposals (300-500 words) by 15 October 2001 to:

Steve Wilmer
School of Drama
