Kenneth Burke Interest Group
The Kenneth Burke Interest Group invites submissions for the 114th Eastern Communication Association Annual Conference (March 20-24, 2024 in Cambridge, MA). While all papers and panel proposals shall be considered, those that address the conference theme (Currents) will be particularly welcome. Submissions may include competitive papers or panels.
Please encourage your undergraduate and graduate students submit papers and panels to the Kenneth Burke Interest Group. In this interest group specifically and in Burke studies in general, it has been our tradition that we honor and promote student scholarship and scholarly work. We recognize that they are the future of the discipline. You can also request co-sponsored panels, when it is fitting, since Burke studies often involve multidisciplinary approaches.
