This would be papers and panels that discuss, from the perspectives offered by different disciplines and fields, how notions of Tamil-ness have been imagined, identified and embodied in historical, political, cultural and aesthetic practices that engage intellectual perception and subjective response through a range of materials, technologies, visions, models and movements which help fashion ways of being Tamil. Please note that, as always, we welcome abstracts from non-Tamil studies specialists, especially given the theme of this conference. **Submission Deadline: August 31, 2010** For more information, please visit: http://tamilstudiesconference.ca or email: [email protected]
