Upcoming Conference Talks in Malta and Bayreuth

In November, Yining will give presentations at two different events: First, she will participate in the international conference “Rethinking Comparison in Sinology,” which will take place November 4–6 at the University of Malta. There, she will present a paper titled “Chinese Viewers of the Post-1980 Generation and Hollywood Sequels and Franchises: Generational Differences and Continuities.” This talk is based on her work thus far in the Chinese case study, and will present more of her findings to a broader audiences.

Later that month, from November 12–14, she will also participate in this year’s PGF Conference in Bayreuth. The conference’s theme is “Planetary Precarities: Perspectives of/on the Age of Post-Truth,” and she will take part in a panel discussion on “Epistemic Violence.” Her paper, “Unravelling the Post-Truth Nostalgia: The Frontier Myth and the ‘Stubborn Horse’ in Sam Shepard’s Kicking a Dead Horse,” is based on her master’s thesis and allows her to present work outside the scope of her dissertation project.

For more information on both conferences, please visit the University of Malta and Bayreuth’s websites.
