Starting for #Kzoo2020

𝔄s a follow up on the Kalamazoo 2019 report, the Sneak Peek of the 2020 International Congress on Medieval Studies call for papers is available. As I looked at it, I was happy to find in it what I show below:

For those who can't see the graphic, it reads:

Tales after Tolkien Society (2): Deadscapes: Wastelands, Necropoli, and Other Tolkien Inspired Places of Death, Decay, and Corruption (A Panel Discussion); Legacies of Tolkien’s Whiteness in Contemporary Medievalisms (A Roundtable)

The Society looks forward to having your abstracts! From the 2019 report, they are:

• Deadscapes: Wastelands, Necropoli, and Other Tolkien-Inspired Places of Death, Decay, and Corruption--a paper session examining depictions of what comes in the wake of war and death in works in the Tolkienian tradition; Carrie Pagels has offered to preside.
• Legacies of Tolkien's Whiteness in Contemporary Medievalisms--a roundtable session examining the continuing effects of Tolkien's depictions of race in medievalist works; Society Secretary Rachel Cooper has offered to preside.

We hope to see you at the 'zoo!
