ISSN Conference in New Orleans, 2020

At the 2020 International Society for the Study of Narrative Conference in New Orleans, the multi-narrative research group organized a panel titled “Multi-Narrative Round-Table: Juxtaposition and Coherence in Contemporary Narrative.”  The round-table format highlighted how our papers participate in an ongoing conversation in a different way than the paired panels had at previous conferences.   André Schwarck opened the panel with a paper that articulated the main points of our current working paper. Cord-Christian Casper, Corinne Bancroft and Evan Van Tassell followed with brief papers that each focused on one parameter of the current working paper in relation to a specific text.  Peter Rabinowitz, who had an opportunity to read all the papers in advance, concluded with a response that both engaged our project and outlined unanticipated applications of the multi-narrative.
