[KB] NCA Call for Papers and Pannels

[Jon Carter]

Hi Friends,

I just wanted to remind all of you that proposals for NCA  are due March
27th.

If you need some inspiration, here are some of the ideas we generated at
the NCA business meeting (the full call is below).

Burke and the Wire (given our host city)
Burke and genocide/the holocaust
Comments and applications of "War of Words"
Honoring Jim Klumpp
LAPE and injustice in contemporary education

A "War if Words" pre-conference



The Kenneth Burke Society Interest Group is seeking submissions for the
2019 NCA Annual Convention. The Kenneth Burke Society seeks to promote
research in the theory and application of Burkean scholarship; submissions
to this division should directly engage the works of Kenneth Burke.

Papers and panels that engage with the 2019 convention theme,
"Communication for Survival" will be given special consideration.
Submissions that connect Burkean scholarship to other NCA divisions are
particularly welcome.

The Kenneth Burke Society Interest Group will accept the following
submission types: Individual Papers, Paper Sessions, and Panel Discussions.
All submissions must be made via NCA Convention Central. Emailed or mailed
