UPDATE: Philament: Retrospective (12/03/04)

Philament invites contributions to its upcoming issue, Retrospective.

[nostalgia, or déjà vu, or the retrospective classification of the cannon;
testimony; memoirs – personal or cultural; commemoration; immortalization; text
vs. oral; print vs. cybertext; mnemonics; advertising; an author's collected
works or anthologies; "best of" music compilations; marginalia, editor's
footnotes, translation; reincarnation; reinvention; etc.]

Isn't writing immortalization? Publishing with us certainly is. Barthes would
kill me for that. And so blatant too.

"Bile: The Journal of Discontent"

Face it, you're angry.

There's a lot to be angry about. Bile is a new on-line journal of art,
letters, media and politics that seeks to embrace your indignation and
harness it as a trigger for progressive discussions and important
debates. Bile seeks to berate injustice, scold weak thinking, rebuke
the successes of the undeserving, and generally reprimand those who
produce, market, legislate, or enforce maddening drivel.

CALL FOR PAPERS:

Call for Papers: The Figure of the Coquette

The proposed collection of essays seeks to explore the figure of the
coquette in the long eighteenth century (1660-1830), with the aim of
understanding and theorizing the cultural context that produced the figure,
her historical evolution, and her representation in European culture. We
are particularly interested in the coquette as a key site for debates about
women's nature and female roles during this period, ranging from the
misogynist critique of the coquette to explorations of her social power.
Comparatist analyses and cultural studies approaches are welcome, as are
essays addressing modern or contemporary rewritings of the figure of the
coquette

Reflections on Writing: Pedagogy, Expectations, and Best Practices
________________________________

________________________________

With the renewed influence on writing competency, instructors at all levels of the educational system are revisiting the ways in which they conceive of good writing and good teaching practices, as well as the ways in which they present these ideas to their students. Further, the current focus on composition pedagogy emphasizes the reflective aspect of the process and serves to encourage instructors to conceive of writing not merely as a sequence of assignments or activities, but as a deliberate representation of the theoretical framework that informs those activities.

We have received numerous inquiries on the submission of visual =
representations of text. As such, nasty would like to extend the CFP to =
include representation of text in image, image and text, and textual =
studies of art forms apart from comics and graphic novels.

Issue #15: Pics and Bits

In the Humanities, we long ago redefined the concept of "text" to
include architecture, clothing, furniture, and any other material
object, artistic or otherwise, that can be a vessel for narrative. It is

possible, in fact, that the printed word as we know it is merely a blip
in the history of human communication.
