Liminality: Voices Across the Globe

Jwirya Tarek — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 10:19:49 +0000

The Faculty of Languages, MSA University is pleased to launch the Third International Conference “Liminality: Voices Across the Globe” in October 2026.

The present-day is marked with blurred boundaries and diverse pathways, with interconnected yet detached territories. Humanity casts doubt on perception of clasping hands and calling voices from liminal spatiotemporal scenes across the globe. The inevitable transitional phases amid the ‘no longer’ and the ‘not yet’ marks human and nonhuman experience. Nevertheless, liminality invites to expand virtual and physical interconnectedness, recreating what has been considered ‘defined and established’ spaces. Liminality is an ever-lasting dynamic force that continues to construct and deconstruct ‘subjective reality’. Liminal spaces have been more powerful than human or non-human anticipation.

This conference aims to address unlimited inferences of liminality such as ecological thresholds, gender, race, ethics, and digitalization in-betweenness. The conference offers an engaging platform for academicians, theorists, and artists to share their ideas and interpretations of emerging concepts in fields of humanities across different cultures and contexts. Papers and workshops from various disciplines are welcomed to pronounce the questions related to this concept.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:

Hybridity and Third Spaces
Liminal Spaces
Acculturation and Identity Negotiation
Intergenerational Transmission
Disability Linguistics
Virtual Communities
Online Gender Activism
Conflict Discourse
Narratives of Risk, Uncertainty, and Temporal Liminality
Transitional Practices and Storytelling
Diasporas and Translanguaging Practices
Second-language Identity Construction
Hybrid Teaching Environments
Multicultural Settings and Teacher Identity Formation
Representation of Exile, Trauma, and/or Rebirth
Metaphors of Thresholds, Crossings, Borders
Voice as Identity Performance
Temporal Liminality
The Poetics of Migration and Displacement
Ecological Thresholds
Digital Liminality
Memory and Liminality
Medical Humanities
Untranslatability and the “Void”
Translating Marginalized Voices
Liminality: Machine vs. Human
The Translator as Liminal Agent

The conference features presentations and workshops.

Selected papers will be published free of charge in TANWĪR: A Journal of Arts and Humanities.
