Fourth Annual Halloween Conference
Terrorized by Twins: Doppelgängers and the Specter of the Double!
The word “doppelganger” in German translates to “double walker.” It is a phenomenon that involves someone seeing an exact double of themselves, or an apparition of someone who has passed away. Twins can be omens of death, and often depict shadows, and/or doubles, in literature. Scholarly researched articles welcome addressing literature, films and other elements in the humanities.
The Self as Doppelganger · Cultural apparitions/haunters · Doppelgangers in folklore · Doubles in gender, ethnicity · Doubles, twinning and shadows in literature, film and/or novels · Twins that haunt us. Identity, transcultural identity, transgender identity, psychology studies, cultural studies, literary criticism, gender studies.
