Academic Exchange Quarterly Summer '03 Special Issue

Call for Papers: Writing and Social Awareness

This message is being cross-posted; please excuse duplication.

The Academic Exchange Quarterly is looking for articles for the Summer 2003
expanded issue, with a special section on WRTING AND SOCIAL AWARENESS.

Special Issue: Terror/ism and the Postmodern Novel

For an upcoming special issue of Studies in the Novel, I seek critical
studies of novels since the mid-20th century dealing with terror or
terrorism in a postmodern, globalist, biological/nuclear, and/or
high-tech context. All analyses of contemporary novels (or fiction by
contemporary novelists) dealing with the disturbing implications of "the
global village" are welcome, as are theoretical considerations of terror
(and horror?) in the postmodern age, as opposed to their pre-nuclear (or
pre-9/11) conceptualizations. Analyses of novels whose themes include
intra-state terrorism inflicted upon ethnic and sexual minorities are
also sought.

Americana: The Journal of American Popular Culture (1900-present) is
currently accepting submissions for its spring 2003 edition due out in May
and published online at www.americanpopularculture.com.

The deadline for submissions is 15 April 2003. Please see the call for
papers link at

for additional requirements.

CALL FOR PAPERS

The United States through the Prism of American and British Popular Music.

For over a century and in modes ranging from hagiography to protest, popular
music has been a prime theatre of observation and representations of the
United States on record, in concert and more generally in the performing
arts. Studying this field, with its senders-artists and their
productions-and its receivers-gatekeepers and audiences-could enable us to
cast a different light on the USA as a source of inspiration, rejection and
attraction for musicians on both sides of the Atlantic in order to explore
certain visions of that country, or at least to examine some of the forces
that shape and/or distort it.

Call for Papers
