The standing Poetry and Poetics session seeks abstract submissions exploring any aspect of poetry and poetics. Please bring us paper topics that encompass a wide range of subgenres; bring us specific time periods; bring us unique critical approaches. In particular, we want, if possible, papers that engage with the PAMLA special conference theme of "Translation in Action." While we are open to any strong proposals exploring poetry and/or poetics, possible topics could include, but are not limited to: transnational or transcultural or multilingual poetry; poetry in translation or adapted poetry; poetry and identity, especially as considered intersectionally; poetry and space; poetry and the senses, including touch; rethinking forms; poetry and lack or silence; cognitive approaches to poetry; political or protest poetry; spoken word poetry; new trends in poetry and poetics; poetry and humor; rethinking the poetic avant-garde.
