Due to the ongoing outbreak of the Covid-19 crisis, the ENN6 Conference 

‘Gaslight’ Narratives in Virtual Landscapes: Narratological Implications of Technologically Mediated and Immersive Media 

is postponed until the spring of 2021. We will inform you about the exact date of the conference as soon as possible.

The deadline for abstracts has been extended: September 30rd, 2020.  

When Gregor Samsa and his relatives realize that the protagonist of The Metamorphosis has become a cockroach, their world is shaken not because he is no longer a man, but rather because he cannot go to work anymore. Therefore, Gregor’s metamorphosis is only relevant for fiction from the moment new ways of perceiving things irrupt and highlight the shackles of a society imprisoned in its material concerns.
