Dear all,

CFP: NARRARE INTERDISCIPLINARY AUTUMN SEMINAR FOR PhD RESEARCHERS November 8, 2024, Tampere University, Finland

Deadline for proposals: September 22,

Deadline for final seminar papers October 25.

If your PhD project involves studying narrative or if you make use of narrative methods, this announcement is for you. On Friday November 8, 2024, Narrare: Centre for Interdisciplinary Narrative Studies at Tampere University hosts its eighth annual seminar for PhD students. The seminar provides a chance to meet PhD researchers from diverse backgrounds who work on or with narrative, but also to participate in Narrare’s ongoing endeavor of developing theories, methods, and analytical tools for the field of interdisciplinary narrative studies.

The seminar papers will be commented on by the senior researchers and professors of the Centre. Additionally, our confirmed visiting scholars commenting on the workshop papers this year are Professor Eneken Laanes and Senior Lecturer Merja Polvinen.

Proposals: We ask prospective participants to submit a proposal for a paper to be presented at the seminar. The one-page proposal should include: title, research question, target material, method and theoretical framework plus a short description of the issues the author would like the seminar to address when discussing their paper. The language of the proposals and the seminar is English.

Seminar papers & presentations: Those selected to present at the seminar are expected to send in written papers to be discussed. Papers should include an extended version (2 to 3 pages) of the proposal and a representative excerpt (2 to 3 pages) of their target material. In case the original target material is in any other language than English, we ask for you to provide a short sample (for example half-a-page) of the material translated to English. On the day of the seminar, participants are expected to present their papers briefly (max. 5 minutes) before comments and discussion.

The seminar will be held on site at Tampere University in Finland. If there is room in the program, a hybrid panel with some of the PhD participants online can be organized. Please indicate clearly in your application if you can only participate online.

Apply by sending your proposal to Markus Laukkanen (markus.laukkanen at tuni.fi) by September 22. The deadline for the final seminar papers is October 25.
