CFP: Canada and the League of Hockey Nations: Critical Perspectives on Hockey in Canada and Beyond
(NOTE: OK, this has really little to do with libraries, but it would be interesting to address the issue of the literature of hockey. For example, what kind of collection does a Southern city need for hockey in the public library when they get a franchise in the NHL or in the minor leagues)
An interdisciplinary conference will be held in Victoria, British Columbia, April 20-22, 2007 to explore significant aspects of hockey in Canada and elsewhere in the world. The conference will attempt to give some special attention to international issues in relation to hockey, but proposals are welcomed on all hockey-related topics. Some possible topics might include (but are not limited to):
hockey?s place on the world stage
the significance of the internationalization of hockey on Canadian hockey
hockey and national identities
hockey and gender
the hockey memoire
literary portrayals of hockey
spectacle and spectatorship
hockey and spirituality
the business of hockey
hockey and the possibilities and limits of sport in modern life
the significance of ?other? hockeys: old timers?hockey, ball hockey, and so on
hockey in history
500 word proposals for papers 15-20 minutes long should be sent by email to Jamie Dopp, Department of English, University of Victoria, [email protected]. Proposals are due by December 15, 2006.
