The biannual Charles F. Fraker Conference is organized by doctoral students in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures at the University of Michigan–Ann Arbor in honor of Professor Emeritus of Spanish Charles F. Fraker.
The 2025 Conference will take place on Friday and Saturday, October 17 and 18. This year, we are excited to welcome Professor Anna Kornbluh (University of Illinois, Chicago), who will deliver the keynote lecture and workshop. Originally a venue for graduate students of Hispanic Studies to meet and discuss the subjects of their research, the conference has grown to include the work of students of many other fields and disciplines. In previous years, the Charles F. Fraker Conference has featured as its keynote speakers intellectuals such as Jacques Lezra, Alberto Moreiras, Jacques Rancière, Bill Brown, Michael Taussig, WJT Mitchell, and Robert T. Tally Jr.
The events will be held at the Michigan League, 911 North University Avenue. Refreshments, including coffee and snacks, will be provided at 9:00 AM and throughout the day. Please direct any questions to our conference planning committee at frakerconference@umich.edu and check the website for more information:
