Text reads: Situated at the intersection of the humanities and information technology, computational literary studies have emerged as a dynamic approach for remapping our understanding of literary analysis and literary history. This conference aims to highlight the growing relevance of this novel field not only for Literary and Cultural Studies in modern language departments but also for related disciplines such as History and English as well as Computer Science and Data Science. By leveraging algorithmic approaches, researchers are uncovering new patterns, challenging long-held assumptions, and providing fresh perspectives on literary movements, textual features, and the interplay between literature and society. The innovative methodology is not only enhancing our understanding of literary history but also opening up new avenues for interdisciplinary collaboration and research that links the humanities to current advances

ALT Flyer with cows and farm. Headshot on right of flyer. Text reads: While the Midwest has often been portrayed as homogeneous in terms of its people and geography, the reality is that it is far more complicated…and interesting. Lifelong Midwesterner Professor Kristy Nabhan-Warren spent over seven years researching the history of migration, work, and religion in rural Iowa for her book Meatpacking America. What she discovered is a Midwest that is undergoing fascinating transformations in migration, work, and culture that have regional, national, and global implications. Kristy will share insights from her ethnographic research and tell us why she thinks what is happening in the Midwest is an important indicator for the future of the U.S.
