Second Symposium and Festival of Music and Literature
Call for Proposals
Date: 9-10 February 2012

The Symposium and Festival of Music and Literature is an invitation to explore the various aspects of Music and Literature and the interrelations and inter-semiotic relations that unite Literature and musical composition. It proposes an investigation of this fusion that exists between a literary, theoretical, or musicological dialogue and the live musical concert. Participants are invited to submit proposals on the various aspects of Musical Analysis, History and Literature, as well as various Topics in Literature. We invite proposals for 20 minute individual or panel presentations in the following areas:
∙ Romanticism, post romanticism and symbolism in both Music and Literature
∙ Twentieth Century Musical and Literary Forms and Analysis
∙ The interplay between the Avant-Gardes and Art in the Twentieth Century
∙ Instrumental music, narrative, and poetry
∙ Vocal music, narrative and textuality in vocal music
