Dear Colleagues, I'm organizing a panel on the flâneur in Central and Eastern European cities (cities somewhat further east are also welcome). My interest in this topic was kindled by the 2012 symposium The Flâneur Abroad: International and Historical Perspectives on an Urban Archetype, where I presented on the Prague flâneur and Tatiana Senkevitch presented on Nevsky Prospect in St. Petersburg; I feel certain that more could be said about flâneurs and strolling spectatorship in this region! Papers can explore the flâneur in literature, art, and/or popular culture; address geographic, sociological, anthropological, ethnic, and gender aspects of flânerie; introduce us to individual flâneurs; consider the flâneur in relation to urbanization; etc. I hope to serve as discussant, but I am also open to presenting a paper looking at aspects of the Prague flâneur that were not included in my earlier paper. If interested, please submit a brief abstract to [email protected]. Best wishes, Karla Huebner Art and Art History Wright State University _______________________________________________ Shera mailing list [email protected] http://lists.oakland.edu/mailman/listinfo/shera
