SUMMARY:When is consent not consent? Medical Ethics-in-Interaction
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Hannah Shipman – School of English\, HKU \nAbstract\nInformed consent is held as the ethical and legal bedrock of clinical practice and research involving humans\, though there is ongoing debate about the extent to which it is attained. A paradigm of consent focusing on individual autonomy and self-determination is dominant. With increasing numbers of litigation cases and professional guidelines\, attention is focused on the question: Has informed consent been achieved? This paper takes an alternative perspective by investigating consent in practice in genetic contexts\, exploring how professionals discuss consent and how it unfolds during encounters. \nI draw on data from semi-structured interviews with professionals responsible for seeking consent (n = 28) and observations of encounters where consent was sought (n = 27). Rhetorical discourse analysis\, involving micro-examination of the discursive devices drawn on by participants in their talk led to the central finding of accountability; that is\, how consent is negotiated through often competing discourses of respect for autonomy and the responsibilities of relevant parties. This frequently gave rise to tensions in the accounts\, which I will explore in relation to the themes selected for detailed analysis (negotiations of informed consent; constructions of motivations and concerns; handling risk and uncertainty; professional challenges). I argue for a movement away from the impasse in discussions within the dominant paradigm of consent and suggest that opening up a dialogue that conceptualises consent as an interactive process involving complex moral negotiations within relationships is a more fruitful way forward. \n ||  \nBiography

SUMMARY:Radically usage-based diachronic construction grammar and the development of non-deontic be bound to
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Dirk Noël – School of English\, HKU (https://englishhkuhk.foarts.hku.hk/people/Faculty/83/Dr%20Dirk%20No%C3%ABl) \nAbstract\nEven when both use and cognition are incorporated in its theorizing about grammatical change\, research in the budding discipline of diachronic construction grammar which explicitly subscribes to a “usage-based” approach does not always distinguish between abstraction from the observed usage of a linguistic community and individual linguistic knowledge. Given that language change starts with innovations by individuals and that experientially constructed knowledge is necessarily diverse\, such a distinction crucially needs to be made to arrive at a realistic usage-based account of grammatical change. This paper first assesses the extent to which the conflicting models of Elizabeth Traugott and Olga Fischer succeed in teasing apart internal and external systems\, concluding that while the former’s reanalysis model results from an external semasiological perspective\, the latter’s analogy model is more radically usage-based in that it does not inherently entangle intra- and extra-individual knowledge. By way of an illustration of a radically usage-based approach\, the second part of the paper proposes an onomasiological account of how the pattern be bound to came to be used as a non-deontic/epistemic necessity marker\, offering an alternative to viewing it as a development from the historically prior deontic be bound to construction. \n ||  \nBiography

SUMMARY:Writing as spectacle
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Adam Jaworski – School of English\, HKU (https://englishhkuhk.foarts.hku.hk/people/Faculty/48/Professor%20Adam%20Jaworski) \nAbstract\nThis talk is a preliminary\, work-in-progress inquiry into the idea of writing as ‘spectacle’. I will discuss several examples of large scale\, extravagant\, immersive writing in art and public signage exemplifying three approaches to spectacle: ‘consumerist representation’ (Guy Debord)\, ‘visual pleasure’ (Laura Mulvey) and ‘grotesque ritual’ (Mikhail Bakhtin). Some of the artists to be discussed in the talk include Fiona Banner (1966–)\, Alighiero Boetti (1940–1994)\, Ahmet Güneştekinin (1966–)\, Robert Indiana (1928–)\, Roman Opałka (1931–2011)\, Cy Twombly (1928–2011) and Xu Bing (1955–). In conclusion\, I will reflect on how the scale\, repetition and materiality of spectacularization position writing somewhere between ‘an enigmatic projection of our own bodies’ (Barthes) and broader questions of signification and meaning-making. \n ||  \nBiography

SUMMARY:Transnational Adoption Literature: History\, Genre\, Representation
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Eli Park Sorensen – The Chinese University of Hong Kong (http://www.eng.cuhk.edu.hk/?page_id=1831) \nAbstract\nSince the Korean War (1950-1953)\, over half a million non-western children have been sent to western countries for transnational adoption — whereas there are very few examples of white children adopted to non-western countries by non-western populations. In my paper\, I will talk about the historical background of transnational adoption\, some of the political aspects involved\, and how this phenomen relates to the study of literature. I focus on Korean adoption\, primarily because the model of transnational adoption developed in the aftermath of the Korean War is unique: it represents the first real example of an institutionalized\, large-scale\, transnational adoption programme which subsequently has been and to some extent still is reproduced in other non-western countries. Furthermore\, I discuss autobiographical writing written by Korean-born adoptees — a corpus of texts that has emerged within the last three decades due to the fact that the generations of Korean children sent abroad during the sixties and seventies have now come of age — ready to speak for themselves\, to offer their own viewpoint\, in a public space that has typically been dominated by adoptive parents\, politicians\, journalists\, academics and social workers. \n ||  \nBiography\nEli Park Sorensen is assistant professor in Department of English at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. He specializes in comparative literature\, postcolonial thought\, literary theory\, and cultural studies. He is the author of Postcolonial Studies and the Literary: Theory\, Interpretation and the Novel (Palgrave Macmillan\, 2010) and has published in journals such as NOVEL: A Forum on Fiction\, Journal of Narrative Theory\, Paragraph\, Modern Drama\, Research in African Literatures\, Partial Answers\, and Forum for Modern Language Studies.

SUMMARY:Enacted Narratives
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Matias Martinez – Bergische Universität Wuppertal (https://www.ndlmm.uni-wuppertal.de/) \nAbstract\nIn recent years narratologists have become increasingly aware of ways of telling stories that do not correspond to a narrow definition of narrative. Diverse phenomena such as ballets\, games\, buildings\, gardens and lifes are now taken to tell stories. These ‚embodied‘ narratives challenge classical narratological concepts of narrator\, reader\, story etc. They force us to reconsider the nature of narrative and the scope of narratology. In my talk I discuss current definitions of narrative and propose a conceptual framework that encompasses traditional as well as embodied varieties of storytelling.  \n ||  \nBiography

SUMMARY:When I find myself\, what did I find\, and who did the finding?
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Emeritus Eugene Eoyang – Indiana University Bloomington/Lingnan University (https://comparativeliterature.indiana.edu/people/eoyang.shtml) \nAbstract\nThe study of the self has prompted many publications in the West in the last generation\, but few studies examine the contrasting notions of the self in Asia and the West.  In the West\, the development of the self is regarded as essential to psychological growth and to spiritual health; in the East\, however\, the annihilation of the self is recommended as the ideal of sagacity and wisdom.  In an attempt to make sense of conflicting notions of the self\, we develop a schema\, a declension of the self\, into first-\, second-\, and third-person perspectives\, and we distinguish between the subjective self\, which sees the world through a dominant consciousness\, and the objective self\, which regards itself merely as part of all phenomena. Rousseau's Confessions and Wordsworth's The Prelude\, for example\, of first-person subjective autobiographies; Benjamin Franklin's Autobiography and Lord Chesterfield's Letters are examples of Second-person subjective self-portraits; while Henry Adams's The Education of Henry Adams would represent Third-person subjective depictions of the self.  Asian self-portraits\, like traditional Chinese poetry\, or Sei Shonagon and Murasaki Shikibu's Diaries\, tend to be first-person objective self-portraits.   In the analysis\, one hopes to establish a neutral basis on which to compare Eastern and Western notions of self. \n ||  \nBiography\nEugene Chen EOYANG is Professor Emeritus of English\, Translation\, Humanities\, and General Education at Lingnan University in Hong Kong as well as Professor Emeritus of Comparative Literature and of East Asian Languages & Cultures at Indiana University in the U. S. With a B. A. from Harvard College and an M. A. from Columbia University in English literature\, he earned his Ph.D in comparative literature from Indiana University. He was a cofounder of the journal\, Chinese Literature: Essays\, Articles\, Reviews (CLEAR)\, and numbers among his publications\, The Transparent Eye: Reflections on Translation\, Chinese Literature\, and Comparative Poetics (Hawaii)\, Coat of Many Colors: Reflections on Diversity by a Minority of One (Beacon Press) 'Borrowed Plumage': Polemical Essays on Translation (Rodopi)\, Two-Way Mirrors: Cross-Cultural Perspectives on Glocalization (Lexington Books) and The Selected Poems of Ai Qing (Foreign Languages Press/Indiana University Press). His translations have appeared in Sunflower Splendor: Three Thousand Years of Chinese Poetry edited by Irving Lo and Wu-chi Liu (Indiana University Press). He was elected President of the American Comparative Literature Association from 1995-1997. He was chair of the Intercultural Studies Committee of the International Comparative Literature Association from 1997 to 2004\, and he was Vice President of the Fedération Internationale des Langues and Littératures Modernes (FILLM) in 2000-2006. He has been admitted as a Fellow to the Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts\, Commerce\, and Merchandise.

SUMMARY:Retroactive Jokes: Kafka's Literary Laughter
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Alfie Bown – Hang Seng Management College (https://mst.hsu.edu.hk/en/) \nAbstract\nThis paper discusses the relationship between literature and laughter\, focusing not so much on representations of laughter nor on the role of laughter in literature\, but on whether there may be a literary quality to laughter itself. Using examples from Kafka’s letters to his fiancé Felice Bauer\, the paper explores the retroactive power of laughter to transform its own past and present. This retroactive power that laughter has troubles the assumption that laughter is merely an effect and upsets the temporal relationship between laughter and the things we laugh at. In suggests a unique connection between laughter and literature on this basis. \n ||  \nBiography

SUMMARY:The Newspaper Novel: Sensation\, Realism\, and Imagined Community
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Jessica Valdez – School of English\, HKU (https://englishhkuhk.foarts.hku.hk/people/Faculty/64/Dr%20J.%20R.%20Valdez) \nAbstract\nVictorian commentators saw the sensation novel—a short-lived sub-genre of the 1860s known for its fast-paced plots drawn from real life—as symptomatic of the newspapers’ growing influence on the reading public. In a famous 1860 review\, H. L. Manse conflated this new novelistic form – which he called “The Newspaper Novel” – with crime news. By repackaging penny-dreadful melodrama for the middle-class reader\, the sensation novel was characterized as realism’s opposite by many Victorian writers; it was “the product of a commodified literary marketplace” and a “mutant” hybrid form that blurred generic boundaries. This chapter argues\, however\, that the sensation novel draws out a tension shared by both journalistic and novelistic form: a reliance on the improbable alongside a claim to reality. \nThrough an analysis of novels by Wilkie Collins\, this paper traces the conflict between the newspaper’s daily production and its emphasis on uncommon\, “newsworthy” events. Although it claims to represent reality\, the newspaper is drawn to people and events that flout the mundane everyday. I suggest that this parallels a similar tension within realist fiction of the period\, which\, according to Fredric Jameson\, holds onto a melodramatic mode it simultaneously struggles to efface. Wilkie Collins’s Armadale amplifies this tension by transforming the newspaper into an agent of melodramatic fate\, as its central female character – Lydia Gwilt – consults the newspaper for signs of her predetermined end. Because of her social marginality\, Lydia cannot identify with the newspapers’ readers nor aspire towards a plot of bildung; as a result\, she imagines herself in the place of what media theorist Niklas Luhmann calls the newspaper’s “norm violators.” \n ||  \nBiography

SUMMARY:George Orwell and the Police
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Douglas Kerr – School of English\, HKU (https://englishhkuhk.foarts.hku.hk/people/Faculty/150/Professor%20Douglas%20Kerr) \nAbstract\nPolice states are "Orwellian". This paper reads George Orwell to ask what the police meant to him. It traces continuities in his representation of the police\, from the imperial force with which he served in Burma in the 1920s\, to the Spanish police from whom he escaped in Barcelona in 1937\, to the Thought Police in Nineteen Eighty-Four. British police had a benign image in his lifetime\, but unusually among writers\, Orwell had seen the disciplinary regime elsewhere\, and from both sides. The British Empire's claim to moral legitimacy rested specifically on the rule of law\, yet as is uncomfortably clear from Orwell's novel Burmese Days and elsewhere\, in colonial Burma a racial oligarchy dealt the law and could over-rule it\, sometimes with violence. In Homage to Catalonia\, the police scarcely pretend to serve the law\, and are an instrument of the Stalinist communists. Barcelona is thus the essential link from Burmese Days to Nineteen Eighty-Four where the law has actually disappeared but the police have not. \n ||  \nBiography

SUMMARY:Anthony Burgess and Modernism
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Andrew Biswell – International Anthony Burgess Foundation (http://www2.mmu.ac.uk/english/staff/profile/index.php?id=1) \nAbstract\nIn 1992 Anthony Burgess wrote a proposal for an unwritten book\, ‘Modernism and Modern Man’. Burgess died the following year\, but the proposal document offers a detailed statement about his thinking on modernism\, not simply as a historical movement but as a continuous artistic project which was not yet complete. \nDrawing on Burgess’s fiction and critical works\, this paper seeks to position him as a late modernist novelist who worked self-consciously in the tradition of James Joyce. His critical writing on Joyce provides a set of interventions through which he articulated an ongoing dialogue with the high modernism of the 1920s and 1930s. In this non-fiction work\, Burgess comes closest to making his literary aesthetic clear. \n ||  \nBiography\nAndrew Biswell is Professor of Modern Literature at Manchester Metropolitan University (UK) and Director of the International Anthony Burgess Foundation.
