Gothic, under contract. The essay should consider moments in which
Gothic horror is generated by a frightening male figure, rather than by
the supernatural. Essays that consider non-canonical texts are welcome.

Eighteenth Century". We welcome proposals for papers or panels on new
theoretical approaches; contemporary rewritings and films of
eighteenth-century texts; non-canonical texts and genres such as
letters, travel literature, journalism, translations; transitions and
boundaries within the long eighteenth century; and popular culture.
We especially welcome talks on works of European literature, as well
as art and music of the period.

the editors are accepting creative and scholarly work for its fall issue.

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.

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?
