Abstract

Organised from Scotland and taking place online, this year’s Glasgow International Fantasy Conversations conference (also known as GIFCon) was titled “Beyond the Anglocentric Fantastic”. Hosted by the Centre for Fantasy and the Fantastic at the University of Glasgow, the three-day conference welcomed a group of both early-career and established scholars from a variety of disciplines. While focusing on widely different topics, the presentations were united by their goal of going beyond the typical Anglocentrism of fantasy research and examining the heterogeneity of fantasy and the fantastic in its full glory.
