If ‘space’ is understood as an area that can be objectively measured or at least conceptualised, the construction of ‘place’ depends on a range of affective and cultural meanings at any given moment.

CFP: The Global South (Journal): “Toxic Ecologies of the Global South”—Deadline December 31st, 2023

Shouldn’t the World Bank be encouraging more migration of the dirty industries to the LDCs (less developed countries)? … I think the economic logic behind dumping a load of toxic waste in the lowest wage country is impeccable and we should face up to that… I’ve always thought that under-populated countries in Africa are vastly under-polluted. (Lawrence Summers, chief economic advisor to the IMF, 1991).

The Oxford Medieval Graduate Conference committee is excited to announce that the theme for the 2024 conference is: ‘Signs and Scripts.’

The conference will be held in person on the 8th and 9th of April, 2024. We are delighted to announce this call for papers and invite proposals relating to all aspects of the broad topic ‘signs and scripts’ in the medieval world. Submissions are welcome from all disciplinary perspectives, whether historical, literary, archaeological, linguistic, interdisciplinary, or anything else. There are no limitations on geographical focus or time period, so long as the topic pertains to the medieval period.

Call for Creative Submission | Writing with the Bots | AI Literature Submission

Using neural networks, the AI literature tools produce human-like pieces of literature that are, in most cases, marked by twisted imitations of the masterpieces both in language and content. The ‘Artificial’ is repetitive and selected from the vast body of literature available on the web or from the classics, a particular language model is fed with. With this caveat, we venture into experimenting with writing with the Bots.

Rupkatha Journal is inviting submissions of AI literature following the instructions below:

The Mythic Circle is the creative writing journal of The Mythopoeic Society, an international association of scholars and fans of J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, the Inklings, and fantasy literature with a mythic bent. The journal has been in continuous publication since 1987; it comes out annually in time for the summer conference of the Mythopoeic Society.

New Modalities of Irishness: Performance, Race and Inequality

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the inaugural issue of Studies of Biblical Interest (SBI) is now inviting submissions. SBI strives to foster an environment of open and pluralistic inquiry through articles related to comparative biblical studies, textual criticism, etymological research, archaeology, anthropology, religion and science, the study of religious and cultural texts worldwide, alternative readings, discussions, critiques, and reviews.
