AAS in Asia- Seeking a panel related to South Asian literature and/or border studies, speculative fiction and decolonial studies

  • 1.  AAS in Asia- Seeking a panel related to South Asian literature and/or border studies, speculative fiction and decolonial studies

    Posted 13 days ago

    Hello all, 

    I am a postgraduate student of literary studies based in Karachi as well as a university lecturer. I am looking to join a panel as a discussant which relates to South Asian or Asian literature with a focus on speculative fiction or fiction through the lens of decolonial studies, border studies, and narrative identity. I am also open to joining any non-literature panel which might fit these areas of study.  

    My current project looks at contemporary speculative fiction novels of the subcontinent and explores the conceptualization of community borders and trauma driven identity narratives and the reimagining of possible futures which move across violence and trauma.

    I would be happy to share more if anyone would like to discuss this further. Looking forward to a meaningful collaboration!
