The Society for Critical Exchange
 
2004 MLA Panel
 
2004 MLA Convention
(27-30 December, Philadelphia
)
 

As an affiliated organization of the MLA, the SCE has one or two standing panels at each annual convention. Usually, SCE programs grow out of continuing projects that Society members pursue.

The presenters and the papers for the panels are listed below. Because the SCE attempts to devote conference panels to discussion rather than merely to presentation, we will make summaries of the papers available around 1 December 2004.
