Mythmoot V: Fantastic Frontiers

Mythmoot

See the Preliminary Schedule

The details are still being worked out. Watch this space for more information about special guests, events, a call for papers/presentations, and additional information as specifics become available.

  • Douglas A. Anderson, scholar of fantastic literature
  • Marc Okrand, inventor of Klingon and professional conlanger
  • Alan Sisto and Shawn E. Marchese, hosts of the Prancing Pony Podcast

Call for Proposals

Mythmoot V combines academic conference, literary creative meet-up, and fan convention into one event. It creates a space for serious scholarship in fields that are only beginning to be considered in the academic world (such as science fiction, fantasy, horror, gothic, folklore, children’s literature, etc.) in a way that both academics and enthusiasts will appreciate.

We are accepting proposals for Papers, Panels, Workshops, and Creative Presentations (storytelling, music, visual arts, etc.)  in the areas of Imaginative Literature, Tolkien and Inklings Studies and Germanic Philology. Proposals will be accepted through 15 March 2018. Read full CFP for submission details by clicking the button below.
