A call for papers for a two-day academic conference ‘Celebrating 215 years of Edgar Allan Poe’. To be held in California. Note also… “This conference will be held online at no charge. The Zoom link will be sent out the week prior.”
“215” apparently refers to the years since his “deathday” anniversary, but the organisers have that wrong. 2024 marks 215 years since his birth in 1809. It’s 175 years since he died.
Deadline for 200 word submissions: 13th September 2024.
Strictly speaking, it is at California Polytechnic State University, Pomona — there are three “California Polytechnic State Universities”.
