Special Issue: Philip Roth's America

For an upcoming special issue of _Studies in American Jewish Literature_
(slotted for 2004), I am seeking critical essays devoted to Philip
Roth's recent exploration of American life in the last half of the
20th-century. This "American trilogy," as it has been called by his
publisher, includes the novels _American Pastoral_, _I Married a
Communist_, and _The Human Stain_. Consideration may also be given to
essays focusing on his other later works, such as _Sabbath's Theatre_
and _The Dying Animal_, but ONLY as they relate to Roth's recent
socio-historical articulation of American identity. Topics for
consideration might include:

Pif Magazine is seeking thoughtful scholarly articles and essays for
publication online. Topics may vary, however Pif's main goal is to bring
the research, questions and discoveries of literary criticism to readers
who are not necessarily members of the academic world. We want to publish
articles that do the work of scholarly inquiry without reliance on
academic jargon, and whose central goal is to communicate with an
audience.

Since the middle ages, the process of translation has sought to bring the
text to a new audience by translating the text literally, or for its
meaning. The tradition of translation was long carried on by men, and in the
early modern period became an approved arena for women to exercise their
pens. While negotiating social, political, and historical contexts and
considerations, the text necessarily took on aspects of the translator's
voice.
