Gulliver’s Travels at 300: The Global Afterlives of a Bestseller in Print, Transmedial Adaptations, and Material Cultures Back

This international symposium celebrates the 300th anniversary of Gulliver’s Travels. It is the enduring power and presence of Gulliver’s Travels in a diverse spectrum of fields, from scholarly editions to transmedial adaptations to popular culture events, that are of great interest to the conference organisers for this event. Papers that propose new, previously unpublished interpretations of the lively afterlives and global peregrinations of Gulliver’s Travels across time and space, or in various media and contexts, using interdisciplinary and cross-cultural approaches, are particularly welcomed.

Proposals (500 words), accompanied by a bio-bibliographical note (100–150 words), should be sent to Gulliver’s Travels at 300 (gulliverat300@yahoo.com) by 15 March 2026. The publication of a selection of revised papers with previously unpublished material is envisaged.
