Kennen Sie schon … „Post45“?

Post45 is a col­lec­tive of schol­ars work­ing on Amer­i­can lit­er­a­ture and cul­ture since 1945. The group was found­ed in 2006 and has met annu­al­ly since to dis­cuss new work in the field. We cel­e­brat­ed our fifth year of exis­tence with a larg­er con­fer­ence at the Rock Hall in Cleve­land, April 29 & 30th, 2011. In Novem­ber of 2013, the board vot­ed to invite schol­ars in the field to pro­pose Post45 con­fer­ences to be host­ed at their own insti­tu­tions. If you are inter­est­ed in dis­cussing the pos­si­bil­i­ty of host­ing a Post45 con­fer­ence, please con­tact us.

Post45’s web­site was host­ed and spon­sored by Yale Uni­ver­si­ty from 2010 to 2019 (as post45.research.yale.edu). Since 2020, Emory Uni­ver­si­ty has host­ed and spon­sored the site at post45.org, and the Emory Cen­ter for Dig­i­tal Schol­ar­ship redesigned the web­site in 2021.

Es gibt eine Zeitschrift und soge­nan­nte „Con­tem­po­raries“:

Post45 seeks to rein­vig­o­rate the erst­while con­ven­tion of aca­d­e­m­ic crit­ics not only describ­ing past tra­di­tions but also active­ly inter­ven­ing in cur­rent tastes. It pro­vides a forum for writ­ers to con­verse with one anoth­er more direct­ly and infor­mal­ly than in tra­di­tion­al aca­d­e­m­ic pub­li­ca­tions. These curat­ed con­ver­sa­tions, or “clus­ters,” range from sets of rel­a­tive­ly autonomous short essays on a com­mon theme to extend­ed epis­to­lary exchanges.
