Cases and their Publics: Interdisciplinary and Transnational Perspectives
on the Case Study Genre
University of Melbourne,
Melbourne, Australia.
26th-28th, September 2011
The interdisciplinary and transnational character of the case study genre
has proved of enduring interest to all Western societies, particularly in
relation to questions of the sexed self, sexual subjectivity and sexual
pathologies.
This workshop will investigate the case study genre and its relationship
to different publics and audiences, from patients to social reformers,
from moral crusaders to literary audiences.
We are interested not only in how case studies were used to communicate
the findings of individual researchers to other members of their academic
disciplines - and beyond that, to broader publics - but also in how in
turn case studies were used by a range of publics and audiences to refute
and dispute academic knowledge.
In particular, we seek papers that engage with the case study as a site of
interdisciplinary negotiations and transnational influences and
transferences, including the ways in which larger historical and
geopolitical forces such as war, migration, translation, and
internationalization shaped the case study genre.
Keynote speakers:
Professor Warwick Anderson, History, The University of Sydney

Professor Nico Pethes, Modern German Literature, University of Bonn, Germany
