Extended proposal submission deadline: November 14, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Proposals for papers and panels are now being accepted for the 45th annual SWPACA conference. One of the nation\u2019s largest interdisciplinary academic conferences, SWPACA offers nearly 70 subject areas, each typically featuring multiple panels.  For a full list of subject areas, area descriptions, and Area Chairs, please visit http:\/\/southwestpca.org\/conference\/call-for-papers\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The GNCPC area chair seeks presentation proposals on formal, cultural, historical, and theoretical dimensions of sequential art in all its forms (comics, graphic novels, anime, etc.). Presentations may focus on a single work, put works into productive conversation with one another, or investigate relationships between works of sequential art and their transmedia adaptations; in the latter case, however, significant emphasis should be placed on sequential art \u2013 those proposals focusing too much on film, television, gaming, or other formats will not be read favorably. Authors may also submit field-provoking critical literature reviews intended to reframe scholarly discussion around major disciplinary themes or questions, works of sequential art history or historiography, ethnographic work concerning sequential art audiences, studies of the sequential art industry\u2019s political economy, or investigations into new forms of sequential art storytelling, consumption, distribution, or marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All proposals must be submitted through the conference\u2019s database at <\/strong>http:\/\/register.southwestpca.org\/southwestpca<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For details on using the submission database and on the application process in general, please see the Proposal Submission FAQs and Tips page at http:\/\/southwestpca.org\/conference\/faqs-and-tips\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Individual proposals for 15-minute papers must include an abstract of approximately 200-500 words. Including a brief bio in the body of the proposal form is encouraged, but not required.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For information on how to submit a proposal for a roundtable or a multi-paper panel, please view the above FAQs and Tips page.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
