An Exploratory Workshop Sponsored by The Peter Wall Institute for Advanced Studies, University of British Columbia. CO-ORDINATORS: Graham Good; English, U.B.C. Linda Siegel; Education, U.B.C.
The aim of the workshop is to discuss the impact of Postmodernism in the last twenty to thirty years, both on academic disciplines and on the wider culture and society, and to speculate about what new developments might take the place of Postmodernism, both inside and outside the academy. The workshop will consist of five sessions concerned with specific topic areas as noted below, with some additional events to be arranged on the last day. Participants are invited to submit a short paper to be circulated in advance of the workshop, and these papers will form the basis of the discussion sessions.
