OK...this is not really library realated...but what is not to like about travel and food!
In keeping with the conference theme of The Voyage Out, this panel invites submissions of 300 word abstracts for papers discussing the theme of culinary travel writing, defined as either accounts of meals enjoyed during water trips, ship log descriptions of food provisions on board, trips undertaken for the express purpose of experiencing particular regional cuisines, or accounts of cannibalism in lifeboats. The sea component of this panel is also a broad category which could encompass dining aboard cruise ships, banana boats, yachts, luxury liners, steamboats, lifeboats, or canoes or destinations requiring water travel. The writing in question may be either fiction or non-fiction, contemporary or historical, and the meals described could be real or imagined. The panel seeks to discuss not only the relationship between meals and travel, but also to consider how the fluid borderland of the sea de-stabilizes cultural or regional distinctions and assumptions when it comes to deciding what is on the menu.
Please e-mail 300 word abstracts along with paper title, institutional affiliation, and e-mail address by June 10 to Vivian Nun Halloran at: [email protected]
