  • WLA Conference 2013 COVER
    Mural of Queen Califia and her Amazons, Mark Hopkins Hotel in San Francisco – Maynard Dixon and Frank Von Sloun The name of California derives from the legend of Califia, the queen of an island inhabited by dark- skinned Amazons in a 1521 novel by Garci Ordóñez de Montalvo, Las Sergas de Esplandián. Califia has been depicted as the Spirit of California, and she often figures in the myth of California's origin, symbolizing an untamed and bountiful land prior to European settlement. California has been calling to the world ever since, as land of promise, dreams and abundance, but also often as a land of harsh reality. The 48th annual conference of the Western Literature Association welcomes you to Berkeley, California, on the marina looking out to the San Francisco Bay. This is a place as rich in history and myth as Queen Califia herself. GRATEFUL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS go to the following sponsors for their generous support of the 2013 Western Literature Conference: • The Redd Center for Western Studies • American Studies, UC Berkeley • College of Arts & Humanities, UC Berkeley • English Department, UC Berkeley SPECIAL THANKS go to: • The Doubletree by Hilton Hotel • Aileen Calalo, PSAV Presentation Services • The Assistants to the President: Samantha Silver and George Thomas, Registration Directors; and Alaska Quilici, Hospitality and Event Coordinator • Sabine Barcatta, Director of Operations, Western Literature Association • William Handley, Executive Secretary / Treasurer, Western Literature Association • Paul Quilici, Program Graphic Designer • Sara Spurgeon, Kerry Fine, and Nancy Cook • Kathleen Moran • The ConfTool Staff Registration/ Info Table ATM EMC South - Sierra Nevada Islands Ballroom (2nd floor) (1st floor) Amador El Dorado Yerba Buena Belvedere Island Mariposa Treasure Island Angel Island Quarter Deck Islands Foyer Building (5) EMC North Conference Center (2nd floor) (3rd floor) (4th floor) Berkeley Sacramento Restrooms California Guest Pass for Wireless Access: available in the Islands Ballroom area and Building 5 1.

Ehrhart: "In Cases Like This, There Is No Need to Vote": Korean War Poetry "In Cases Like This, There Is No Need to Vote": Korean War Poetry in the Context of American Twentieth-Century War Poetry 1 By W. D. EHRHART HE KOREAN WAR is the least remembered and least acknowledged of all Tof America's wars. Even as it was being fought, ordinary Americans were aghast to find the country at war again so soon after World War II; they found it profoundly embarrassing to be put to rout twice in six months by what they perceived to be an Asian rabble in sneakers; and they did not understand a war in which total victory was not and could not be the goal. "America tolerated the Korean War while it was on," writes David Halberstam in The Fifties, "but could not wait to forget it once the war was over."2 And once it was over, the Korean War all but vanished from the American landscape. Just as the war has vanished, so too has its literature.

  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.
