Call for Papers: The 16th Biennial Jack London Society Symposium


The 16th Biennial Jack London Society Symposium will be held October 5–8, 2023, at The
Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, California. The
organizers encourage participants to experiment with innovative, alternative and established
theoretical approaches to the life and work of Jack London. We welcome papers and panel
submissions on any aspect of the author’s life and work. In addition, proposals for roundtables or
teaching presentations are encouraged, especially those that connect London with other writers
and artists. Please email 200-word abstract proposals (noting any audio/visual requests) along
with complete contact information and a short biography to Kenneth K. Brandt
at kbrandt@scad.edu. Proposal deadline is August 15, 2023.


Activities will include library, museum, and garden tours at the Huntington. Attendees can
also tour the famous Gamble House and walking tour of the Arroyo Terrace and Grand
neighborhood. Information on Accommodations is forthcoming. Symposium attendees wishing
to do research in the library must obtain reading privileges in advance by going online
to www.huntington.org. Watch https://jacklondonsociety.org/ for further information.
