Om Netværket

Nordisk Netværk for Avantgardestudier er et nordisk forskningsnetværk støttet af Nordforsk 2004-2007. Nordisk Netværk for Avantgarde Studier vil styrke og koordinere mindre og spredte nationale forskningsmiljøer, bidrage til at fremme udveksling af viden om forskelle og ligheder mellem de nordiske lande og gøre nordisk avantgardeforskning internationalt synlig. Nordisk Netværk for Avantgardestudier afholder en årlig konference. Netværket danner også ramme for udarbejdelsen af De nordiske avantgarders kulturhistorie i 4 bind og et elektronisk arkiv for dokumenter fra de nordiske avantgarder. Det nordiske forskningsnetværk er en videreudvikling af det danske forskningsnetværk ”Avantgardernes genkomst og aktualitet” støttet af Det humanistiske Forskningsråd 2001-2004. Under forberedelse er et Europæisk Netværk for Avantgarde og Modernisme Studier, EAM, hvis første konference afholdes i Ghent, Belgien, maj 2008.

About the Network

The Nordic Network of Avant-Garde Studies is supported by Nordforsk 2004-2007. The Nordic Network of Avant-Garde Studies aims to support and coordinate small and dispersed national centres of research, help promote the exchange of knowledge about differences and similarities among the avant-garde currents and research in the Nordic countries, and make Nordic avant-garde research visible in a European and international context. The Nordic Network of Avant-Garde Studies has a yearly conference. Within the Network an editorial group is preparing a four-volume Cultural History of the Nordic Avant-Gardes and an electronic archive of documents from the Nordic avant-gardes. The Nordic network is an extension of the Danish research network ”The Return and Actuality of the Avant-Gardes” supported by the Danish Research Council 2001-2004. A European Network of Avant-Garde and Modernism Studies, EAM, is under preparation and will have its first conference in Ghent in May 2008.

CONTEMPORARY FICTION: THE LEGACIES OF MODERNISM

Peter Nicholls and the editorial board of Textual Practice invite readers of the journal to attend the following Conference:

In Association with the Centre for Modernist Studies, University of Sussex

CONTEMPORARY FICTION: THE LEGACIES OF MODERNISM

A Two-Day Symposium hosted by the University of Sussex, July 7-8, 2006.

The Centre for Modernist Studies at the University of Sussex will be hosting a symposium addressing the evolution of contemporary fiction in the wake of international Modernism. Over the course of two days, it will bring together some of the most prominent novelists in Britain today with leading researchers and critics who are extending the boundaries of contemporary fiction studies within the academy. The symposium will consider the ways in which the legacy of Modernism continues to assert itself in the writing, publishing and reading of novels today; in the evaluative criteria used by teachers and critics; and in the relationship between style and the social, between literary responses to contemporary multicultural environments and the aesthetic movements of Modernism and post-modernity.

Speakers to include:

Ali Smith, Maggie Gee, Abdulrazak Gurnah, Roger Luckhurst, Patricia Waugh, Andrzej Gasiorek, Peter Middleton, Tim Woods, Dominic Head.

Fees: £95 Standard Rate / £65 Concessions.
