GEMELA invites proposals for papers to be included in its guaranteed session and in a proposed session in collaboration with the MLA Forum on 16th- and 17th-Century Spanish and Iberian Drama

1. Returning to the Archives [Guaranteed Session]

 Seeking papers on women who left their marks and testimonies in the archives, reconsidering the impact of those voices on audiences past and present.  In this session we aim to continue the fruitful discussion  inspired by the presenters at our session at the MLA in Vancouver about the importance of returning to the archives in new ways in order to write the women who left ample evidence of their agency back into academic sites of memory. 250-word abstract and CV to Emily Francomano (ecf5 at georgetown.edu) by March 13.



2. Women and Performance in the Comedia.  [Arranged in collaboration the MLA Forum on 16th- and 17th-Century Spanish and Iberian Drama.  Non-guaranteed session] How did women contribute to performance in the Comedia, and how did performance and the Comedia contribute to women?  Papers analyzing actresses; female court players; women and the corrales; scenes of (play)writing; women and queerness; eschewing marriage; changing rooms and costuming.  250-word abstract and brief CV by 1 March.
