The 2019 ACIS South annual meeting will be held from January 31st to February 2nd in historic Charleston, South Carolina, at the College of Charleston. The conference theme will explore how concepts of home and away have been imagined, created, lived, and resisted in Ireland and the Irish Diaspora, past and present, from a gendered perspective. Proposals from various fields, including literature, art, history, film, folklore, anthropology, cultural studies, gender and sexuality studies, and more are welcome. In the wake of #metoo, the repeal of the Eighth Amendment, and the attention on current migration policies, we especially welcome proposals focusing on race or ethnicity, gender, and sexuality.
