We are looking for responses, both creative and critical, to Virgil's The
Georgics for a book collection. We are open to the type of response-it can
be very loosely related to Virgil's work, a direct critical response, or
even a translation. Send your responses or questions to wallegre_at_iun.edu.

Revised description:

I'm putting together a special session for the Chicago MLA in 2007.  The
session will explore experimental writing in the Midwest from a critical
standpoint as it has emerged in the past twenty-five years.  I invite anyone
who is interested to send me an abstract of 250 words concerning your
proposed topic.  I don't have anything specific in mind, so I'm interested
in seeing what people will come up with from any "experimental" genre.
 Please submit abstracts to wallegre_at_iun.edu by 3/15/07
