Seminar @ Sree Sankaracharya, Kalady

CALL FOR PAPERS
Three-day National Seminar
on
VISUAL POLITICS AND CONTEMPORARY CULTURE:
IDEOLOGY, REPRESENTATION AND NARRATIVE SPACE
Organized by
Centre for Comparative Literature
Sree Sankaracharya University of Sanskrit
Kalady, Kerala

05-07 April 2017

This seminar would discuss about visual-image discourses on contemporary cultural contexts and political positions. The visuals are superimposed over the society, which leads to new cultural shift. It is an unobjectionable fact that visual culture influences our daily lives by creating identities and by generally influencing our views.

The creation of movement and pattern within the film create a space for the action to take place, where the spectator follows and moves throughout the narrative space provided by the film. We particularly welcome contributions on the presence of narrative space and politics of cinematic representation in cinema and the role of film in the social construction of culture.

We invite research papers from research scholars, teachers and P G students of colleges and universities and academicians of other field interest in this subject. Eminent scholars and theoreticians, performers and film personalities would participate this seminar as resource persons. You are welcome to discuss aspects of your work, and talk of its challenging and exciting moments.

Contributory papers are invited on the following sessions:

• SESSION I: Narrative Space: Concept, Strategies and Representation
• SESSION II: Perspectives on Politics in (at) cinema
• SESSION III: Exhibition as stage: performance, theatre and body
• SESSION IV: Politics of visual culture and ideology
• SESSION V: Media as new media
