*CFP* “DEVOURING MEN: FOOD, MASCULINITY AND POWER”, INDERDISCIPLINARY CONFERENCE

24-25 de Julio de 2020

Keynote Speakers

The two-day conference will bring together academics, early-career and postgraduate researchers whose work addresses the, sometimes latent, sometimes overt, but always engaging intersections and connections between food, gender and/or power structures. It will also facilitate a discussion on cross-disciplinary methods and approaches to food studies.  

We encourage a wide interpretation of the conference title and its themes. Topics of interests may include, but are not limited to:
  • Food, desire and sexuality
  • Food and the politics of representation
  • Food, nostalgia and memory
  • Food, nation and empire
  • Food, power and bodies
  • Food, animal/human rights and ethics
  • Food and the politics of space
  • Food, male health and/or medicine
  • Food, class and/or commodification
  • Food, masculinity and the classical/ post-classical world
  • Food, masculinity and science/technology
  • Food, masculinity and the ‘future’

Please send abstracts of less than 300 words for 15 minute panel presentations, with a short biography and specification of audiovisual needs, to organisers Sohni Chakrabarti and Siobhan Dooley at foodconf@st-andrews.ac.uk. Deadline for submissions: 1 February 2020.

We expect to publish an edited volume from revised conference papers.

For any enquiries regarding the conference itself, please contact foodconf@st-andrews.ac.uk
