Reading for the Graphic: A Workshop

Date: Early Feb. 2015 [TBC]

Abstracts Invited

This one‐day workshop is directed at students across the University, and neighbouring institutions. The aim is to demonstrate modes of reading the graphic narrative ‐ a medium that, since the last decades of the 20th century and the work of Frank Miller, Art Spiegelman, Joe Sacco, Marjane Satrapi, Appupen and others, is arguably one of the most popular in terms of readership and diverse in its thematic and formal features (not to mention its politics). 8‐10 students will be selected based on their abstract. Each student will be expected to make a 20 minute presentation on 1 text, with accompanying visual materials on a PPT slide. 10‐15 minutes will be allocated for discussion after every paper. Respondents will then give their feedback to the papers at the end of the session/s.  
Students are invited to send in their Abstracts (not exceeding 250 words) with a clear mention of the text to be examined and the focus of their presentation (theme, form, politics) by 1 Jan. 2015 to the undersigned/email IDs. Acceptance will be intimated by 7th Jan. 2015 so that they have sufficient time to work on their presentations. No late submissions please.
