Call for chapter proposals

Contracted book (and fabulous it shall be ;-))

"The Future of Honors Education - Advanced Learning for Today and Tomorrow" (CSP, 2023)

Two chapter writing opportunities remain open for this contracted book.

The focus of this book is on the future of honors education - innovations, contemporary activities, programmatic developments, suggested trajectories. . . (Ideas welcome!). The intention is not to abandon the past, but to draw on that past, consider the present, and look to the (exciting!) future - as all wonderful honors education tends to do. ;-)

This themed edition of Crime Fiction Studies, “Gender in Crime” (March 2024, guest edited by Kerstin-Anja Münderlein), will examine the ways in which Crime Fiction as a genre incorporates and (re-)negotiates gender and sex, and represents and/or questions normativity and deviance in gender and sexual identities throughout its own generic developments and also in regard to true crime and historical events.

Hungarian Studies Yearbook, 2023

https://sciendo.com/journal/HSY

Hungarian Studies Yearbook is the latest intellectual venture of the Hungarian community from the Faculty of Letters at the Babeș-Bolyai University. The launch of this new platform comes after a long preparation and seems to be a natural and logical outcome both of the rich glocal scholarly traditions and the substantial impact this community had in Hungarian studies in the last decades.

This is the 8th QAQV biennial conference abut the first in-person meeting since the outbreak of the pandemic. To celebrate that, we would like to focus on the perceptions of and relationships between body, mind and spirituality in 18th- and 19th-century British literature and culture and their contemporary rewritings.

Inspired by its 2023 exhibition Women in Science, the American Philosophical Society is organizing two international conferences that will explore the history of women in science, the present state of science and society, and the opportunities to create a more inclusive and diverse practice of science. The Society’s first gathering will focus on the themes “achievements and barriers,” while the second will focus on “opportunities.” Both conferences aim to examine these themes from historical, contemporary, and interdisciplinary perspectives.  

This workshop is part of the 54th Annual Congress of the French Association of American Studies which will take place at the University of Bourgogne in Dijon, France, from May 23rd to the 26th, 2023 (https://afea.fr/dijon2023/). The theme of this year's congress is "Voices, Sounds, Noises, Silences." This particular workshop is organized by a trio of researchers (Florence Cabaret, Sylvaine Bataille and Jessica Thrasher) from the University of Rouen - Normandy.

Critical conversations concerned with ecosystems often relate to various geos (-logies, -graphies, etc.), the anthropocene, and the techno-industrial. Yet, as Elizabeth Povinelli astutely questions, “[have] we become so entranced by the image of power working through life [namely biopolitics and its variations] that we haven’t noticed the new problems, figures, strategies and concepts emerging all around us…?” (4). The fluidity of ‘systems’ - whether they be ecological, political, social, etc.
