James Joyce, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man


The College English Association, a gathering of scholar-teachers in English studies, welcomes proposals for presentations on Irish, Scottish, and Welsh Literature for our 54th annual conference. We are especially interested in presentations that incorporate topics related to the conference theme—FREEDOM—in these literatures, but we will consider other proposals as well.

Submit your proposal at www.cea-web.org

Conference Theme: Freedom

As the location of CEA 2025, Philadelphia is perfect for the present moment. Here, the spirit of the American Revolution and the ideals that would drive it were born. The Declaration of Independence, penned and ratified in Philadelphia, argued that “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness” were “inalienable rights.” As a nation, we continue to wrestle with the words of the Declaration and the men who signed it. However, our commitment to liberty is unwavering, even in the face of multiple challenges to our freedoms, our autonomy, and our choices. At the CEA, we hold close especially the belief in academic freedom.

CEA 2025 welcomes papers and panels that address our discipline from multiple perspectives and across a wide range of areas, including literary studies, creative writing, rhetoric, composition, technical communication, linguistics, and film. And, in the spirit of Philadelphia, we are especially interested in presentations that incorporate topics related to FREEDOM as it relates to Irish, Scottish, and Welsh literature in texts, disciplines, people, cultural studies, media, and pedagogy. We also welcome papers on areas that influence our work as academics, including student demographics, student/instructor accountability and assessment, student advising, academic leadership in departments and programs, and the place of the English department in the university.

For your proposal you might consider the following topics in relation to Irish, Scottish, and Welsh literature:

Freedom between disciplines, languages, or generations
Freedom regarding races, classes, cultures, regions, genders, or sexualities.
Cultural or ideological freedom in literary, scholarly, or theoretical works
Freedom as construct, form, metaphor, motif, or icon
Connections between text and images or sound
Freedom regarding theory and practice, reading and writing, writer and audience
Academic freedom in teaching and scholarship; faculty and administrators; professors and students
Freedom and materiality
Digital humanities and freedom


General Call for Papers:

CEA also welcomes proposals for presentations in any of the areas English departments typically encompass, including literature criticism and scholarship, creative writing, composition, technical communication, linguistics, and film. We also welcome papers on areas that influence our work as academics, including student demographics, student/instructor accountability and assessment, student advising, academic leadership in departments and programs, and the place of the English department in the university.

Submission: August 15-November 10, 2024
