*<\/p>\n

Educating the Imagination: A Conference in Honour of Northrop Frye on the Centenary of His Birth<\/strong><\/p>\n

September 27-30, 2012, University of Toronto<\/p>\n

Twenty years after his death, Northrop Frye, the author of Fearful Symmetry<\/em> and Anatomy of Criticism<\/em>, continues to be one of the most read and the most quoted of literary critics.\u00a0 His attention to form, specifically to genre and mode, and his understanding of literature as a totality have directly influenced two later generations of critics, including Hayden White, Fredric Jameson, and Franco Moretti.\u00a0 In order to celebrate this ongoing legacy, the Department of English and the Centre for Comparative Literature at the University of Toronto, Frye\u2019s home throughout his career, have organized a three-day symposium in his honour.<\/p>\n

There will be panels devoted to Frye\u2019s specific legacy, which we are now in a better position to appreciate because of the completed publication of the Collected Works<\/em> in thirty volumes.\u00a0 But we also invite speakers to take inspiration from Frye and to consider literary and cultural topics such as:<\/p>\n

1. Educating the Imagination when the Humanities are under threat<\/p>\n

Frye and Comparative Literature<\/p>\n

2. the place of Western Literature and theory in a global context.<\/p>\n

The spread and the provincialization of Europe.<\/p>\n

The limits of the Great Code<\/p>\n

3. Contemporary manifestations of traditional literary modes:<\/p>\n

the popular romance<\/p>\n

contemporary tragedy<\/p>\n

irony after postmodernism<\/p>\n

4. the place of the Bible in an era of fundamentalism and secularism<\/p>\n

5. The survival of the literary imagination in a digital age<\/p>\n

6. Canadian literature in a postnational age<\/p>\n

7. The Great Code and Islam<\/p>\n

8. History as Narrative<\/p>\n

9. Frye and Ecology<\/p>\n

10.\u00a0 Local literature, local forms<\/p>\n
