Embodying Love in the Inner City : Undoing Injustice through Intentional Neighboring by Katherine Hankins, Andy Walter, Traci Dahl

Dancing the Numinous: Sacred and Spiritual Techniques of Contemporary American Belly Dancers by Jeana Jorgensen

“…In this paper, I explore how contemporary American practitioners of belly dance (as Middle Eastern dance and its many varieties are often called in the English-speaking world) conceptualize not only the spiritual dimensions of their dance, but also how the very notion of performance affects sacred and spiritual dance practices. Drawing on interviews with this community, I describe the techniques of sacred and spiritual belly dancers, how these dancers theorize performance, and how the conflicts inherent to patriarchal mind-body dualism are resolved in these practices. …”

The Phonographic Author of Milton, Edison and Uzanne by Larisa Kocic-Zámbó

“…I argue that their juxtaposition is rooted in the voice hearing etymology of the genius, but more importantly in the notion of what I call the phonographic author. Drawing on nineteenth-century periodicals and books, I will be comparing Edison’s own vision of the phonograph in authoring books and the Victorian popular imagination elaboration on the same, especially in Uzanne’s short story ‘The End of Books’ (1894) while showing Milton’s own role in making such an idea of the phonographic author feasible.…”

Whatever Happened to Projective Architecture? Rethinking the Expertise of the Architect by Lara Schrijver

Entangled Borders by Sarah Green

“…It is obvious that this is not always, or perhaps even often, successfully achieved: the world is full of unfinished, contested and overlapping political borders. Drawing first from examples provided by the European Union and Brexit, and then from the past and present experiences of migration and the movement of peoples to and from the island of Lesvos, the paper suggests that understanding borders as being entangled, both with contemporary and past relations and separations from other places, can help in understanding contemporary border dynamics.…”

De la ventriloquie au trauma by Marc Amfreville

“…This article aims at showing that imitation, far from being only a theme that pervades American literature from the start (Charles Brockden Brown, Ambrose Bierce) to its most recent developments (DeLillo), constitutes a defining structure. Drawing extensively from Freud, but also to a lesser extent from Derrida, this paper, jointly interrogating the figure of the biloquist villain in Wieland, the picture of the aftermath of the Civil War in “Chickamauga” and the 9-11 icon of destruction in Falling Man, endeavors to highlight the parallel and converging lines of psychoanalysis and literature as regards the representation of trauma.…”
