By engaging with Said\u2019s life and works, and his core concepts and arguments, we aim to explore the essence of Said\u2019s intellectual and political contribution, and his lasting relevance for the practitioners of diverse academic fields including English Studies, who take interest in politics of representation, narratives of power, Orientalism, Islamophobia, humanism, and of course, the question of Palestine. The upcoming conference also seeks to find out possible future directions in Saidian Studies. We encourage contributions that critically revisit Said\u2019s ideas, examine their contemporary relevance, and consider their implications for literature, language, culture, politics, and society.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Join us in continuing the conversation on Edward Said\u2019s enduring intellectual legacy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Further details regarding the conference, its submission\/participation guidelines, and important dates are attached in the following document: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/128\/2026\/10\/Call-for-Papers-Edward-Said-Life-and-Legacies.pdf\">Call for Papers &#8211; Edward Said &#8212; Life and Legacies<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">#CallForPapers #EdwardSaid #LifeAndLegacies #IEOL #PostcolonialStudies #LiteraryStudies #CulturalStudies<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abstract Submission Deadline: 10 November 2026 The Institute of English and Other Languages (IEOL) invites scholars, researchers, educators, and postgraduate students to submit papers for its upcoming conference, \u201cEdward Said: Life and Legacies.\u201d This conference seeks to explore the intellectual contributions and enduring influence of Edward Said, one of the most influential literary critics and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":166,"featured_media":1733,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1730","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1730","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/166"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1730"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1730\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1736,"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1730\/revisions\/1736"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1733"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1730"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1730"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ru.ac.bd\/ieol\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1730"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
