Abstract
The purpose of this symposium is to explore, interrogate and celebrate zombies as a cultural phenomenon. The symposium will frame zombies through paradigms of performance and consider the zombie as protagonist, performer, nomad, pilgrim, traveller, tourist, nightmare, underclass and demonstrator. Zombies: Walking, Eating and Performance will consider the derided and resilient figure of the zombie as metaphor and character; the zombie as vehicle for protest and for public self-expression.
