> The Sea Pine shell ring, over 15,000 years old, once sheltered Native
> Americans who occupied Hilton Head seasonally. Gullah and Geechee culture
> emerged on the island as freed slaves sought sanctuary there at the end of
> the Civil War. How, then, are islands in language, literature, and film,
> as in life, places of desperate refuge and welcome escape? What respites
> do they provide? Are islands imagined utopias, or do they offer only
> barriers and isolation? Finally, is the study of composition, film,
> language, literature, and writing a kind of island amidst the tempest of
> the current attack on the humanities?
