Heather K Love delivers a great keynote, drawing on her new book "Underdogs", exploring queer theory’s debt to sociology + the effect of this elision for the field today. Love suggests that sociological description could be a powerful tool for litcrit!

provided an exciting introduction to dystopiology - what do visions of the apocalypse and the end teach us about society? Also discussed the role of the 'test' as an essential element of contemporary dystopic fiction. @uol_sdu #usesofliterature

[Nathan Murray @HolmesnGardens]

A fascinating paper by William Bridges on the pedagogy of the possible - we can put literature to use to understand not only the actual but the possible, in service of seeking out a more equitable future. #usesofliterature @uol_sdu
