This is the third and final of three weeks designed around the CIMS Colloquium. We’ll have an opportunity to address the theories and concepts — including genre, auteurism, adaptation, and (trans)nationalism — and methods — from theoretically-rooted textual analysis to archival research — central to Professor Jaimey Fisher’s work.
