Suggested angles

This conference launches a multi-year research initiative examining how demons and blood function as cultural symbols across different historical periods—offering scholars a chance to contribute to a foundational project that will shape the field's understanding of these concepts over centuries rather than in isolated time periods.

The collaboration between Blazevic, Spence, and yourself brings together distinct scholarly perspectives on cultural history, creating space for papers that bridge traditional disciplinary boundaries and challenge how we categorize supernatural and bodily symbolism across cultures.

By submitting now, scholars can help establish the intellectual framework for this larger project—meaning their conference presentations could become touchstones for how future researchers approach demons and blood in cultural studies, rather than standing as one-off presentations.

Position this as an opportunity to shape the foundational conversations for a long-term research agenda, not just present individual papers.
