Call for Proposals (Special Journal Issue)

With the increased interest in George Gascoigne demonstrated in recent years
and with the approach of the 430th anniversary of his death, now seems an
opportune moment to gather new essays that focus on the poet's life and work.
To that end, Early Modern Literary Studies (EMLS) is publishing a special
issue on George Gascoigne and invites essay submissions that address his life,
work, or influence.

CONFERENCE TITLE:
Nancy Drew and Girl Sleuths: Past, Present, and Future

Appalachia Issue

Appalachia is perhaps America's most misunderstood region, a mountainous
land of hard-working people and devastating (and, too often, devastated)
beauty, a place that is ridiculed by residents of America's glory
coasts-ridiculed, that is, when it is paid any attention at all. But
what really goes on in Appalachia? What are the poems and stories and
songs that come from these mountains, and how do they illuminate the
people who live there?
