Good afternoon,

I am so pleased to share a call for papers for a conference happening in
Donegal in January.  The theme of the conference is Transatlantic
Connections. Papers are welcome in the areas of history, film studies, surf
culture, food culture, and literature.  The literary panel, which I will be
moderating, is open to both creative and critical work.  I would like to
propose a panel on the theme of Transatlantic Connections in Cather's work.
