The deadline has been extended for Society for the Study of American Women
Writers Panel: Dirty Linen in Public: Race, Religion and Laundry in
Nineteenth-Century America.

This panel will explore the ways in which the lens of "laundry" refracts
literary and cultural practices into their component discourses. An
analysis of laundry and its associated motifs (whiteness, washing,
cleansing) not only foregrounds certain gendered and raced labor
practices, but also draws together diverse discourses such as religious
fundamentalism, psychoanalysis, and materialist accounts of labor history.

CFP: The New Elizabeth Bishop

I am seeking papers that explore the implications, for scholarly research
and teaching, of the publication of previously uncollected work by
Elizabeth Bishop in _Edgar Allen Poe and the Juke-Box: Uncollected Poems,
Drafts and Fragments_, edited by Alice Quinn. (This volume will be
published in March of 2006 by Farrar Straus Giroux; proof and review
copies are available now from the publisher.) The publication makes
available a wealth of material from the Elizabeth Bishop papers at Vassar
College, among other archival resources. Papers might explore these
questions:
