  From Godfather to Lost in Translation: The Coppolas' Cinematic Worlds

  Verona, Italy

  This international conference seeks to bring together scholars to examine how the Coppolas' films negotiate narrative and literary forms, linguistic expression, and semiotic structures, exploring both Francis Ford Coppola's expansive, intertextual epics and Sofia Coppola's nuanced explorations of voice, silence, and affect. Contributions addressing the interrelation of textuality, dialogue, and filmic storytelling are particularly encouraged, including studies of translation, multimodal discourse, and adaptation from literature to screen.

  Deadline: April 1, 2026
