Modernist Magazines

Rothermere American Institute, University of Oxford

Plenary Speakers

• Suzanne Churchill (Davidson College), ‘Talk about Silence: Race Issues in Contempo and in Modernist Studies.’
• Alan Golding (University of Louisville), ‘Avant-Gardism Against Itself: “Conversation” and the Reader Critic in The Little Review.’
• Andrew Thacker (De Montfort University), ‘Placing Magazines in Modernism.’

This conference celebrates the publication of the second volume of the Oxford Critical & Cultural History of Modernist Magazines: North America 1894-1960, and explores little magazines and their broader cultural contexts across the Americas. Our intention is to stimulate a discussion of current issues, methodologies and practices, and to consider new directions for modernist periodicals studies.
