Call for Papers – Modern Studies Association Conference, Las Vegas – 18-21 October 2012

This panel takes up a simple, but perhaps exacting question: What can the study of Hegel contribute to our understanding of modernism now?

This call for paper is for a Modern Studies Association Conference to be held in Las Vegas, 18-21 October 2012.

Rather than enumerate Hegel’s many legacies in social theory and philosophy from the nineteenth century onward, this panel asks instead how attention to Hegel’s philosophy, which inscribes time and change into the very stuff of concepts, might illuminate certain aspects of modernist art and writing.
