Italo Calvino and Hypertext
Celebrated Italian writer Italo Calvino has referred to many of his novels as Hypernovels, alternatively referring to them as literary machines or a labyrinths. The hypertext, in its dispersal of narrative structure and its heterogeneous and — it could be argued — its non-literary character, becomes a central figure Calvino’s fictional and theoretical oeuvre since the mid 60s. The purpose of this panel is to examine the importance of this figure in the articulation of Italo Calvino’s original literary project, and/or its constitutive role in the author’s fiction.

I'd been meaning to look at the NEMLA site, and apparently looked just in time. It sounds like a great conference. Thank you for the pointer!

There's one call for papers which might interest users of this website, since it addresses issues involving new media and the humanities. I have copied it here from www.nemla.org: New Vocabularies in Adaptation. Possible subjects include: Traditional or "classical"; adaptive exchanges such as Literature and Drama, Opera, Ballet, or Music; More modern translations such as ones between Literature and Films or Television. Finally, the rise of New Media Studies provides the opportunity to discuss the relationships between Literature and Video games, DVD interfaces, Hypertext adaptations, Online database adaptations, Digital Art, and even Toy crossovers. Please submit your 250-500 word abstract to: Mark Rowell Wallin, University of Waterloo, 200 University Ave. W., Waterloo ON Canada N2L 3G1, 519-888-4567 ext. 2705 mpwallin@artsmail.uwaterloo.ca NEMLA–the Northeast MLA branch–is currently seeking entries for its 2005 conference.
