Marking the 70th anniversary of India’s independence, the conference seeks to engage with the events of 1947 in their historic moment and the multiple afterlives of Indian independence as a concept in fields ranging from history andpolitics to literature, film, music, and performance studies.
We are especially interested in submissions that conceive of India’s independence beyond national boundaries and contexts, or explore the globalized connections of 1947 and its aftermath across disciplinary, geopolitical and linguistic landscapes.
