About the Conference

Under the auspices of the Research Project "Orientation: Towards a Dynamic Understanding of Contemporary Fiction and Culture (1990s-2000s)" (ref. FFI2017-86417-P), funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Competitiveness, and Universities, this Conference explores how the concept of ‘orientation’ can offer a renewed perspective on literary texts and cultural products alike. By positioning ‘orientation’ in close relation to (multiple) temporalities (or “polytemporality”, following Victoria Browne), space, and recognition of the ‘other’, this Conference (and the project) addresses the dynamic and fluid nature of today’s fiction and culture in English.
