CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

for "Form and Persuasion in Women's Informal Letters, 1400-1700," a
collection of essays to be published as a book.

Essays are sought on women's letters from any part of Europe EXCEPT
England, France and Italy, which are already well represented. Essays
on Spain, Germany and Central Europe are particularly needed. Essays on
letters by French or English women may be considered if they come from
mercantile, artisan, or other non-elite backgrounds.

I am looking for 4 or 5 more empirical or theoretical articles to be
included in a book entitled _Studies in Islamic Masculinities_ to be
published by Zed Books (London).

CFP:SCOPE: Conference Reports (e-journal)

Scope, a fully refereed on-line journal of film studies (we're at
http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/film) edited by staff and postgraduate
students within the institute of Film Studies at the University of
Nottingham, is looking for conference reports of about 1000-1500 words to
be included in forthcoming issues. We're seeking contributions on the
events listed below, but we also welcome reports on other relevant
conferences in film, media and cultural studies.

This is an updated Call for Papers for THE JOURNAL OF AYN RAND STUDIES. We
are looking especially for papers that deal with Rand's literary corpus
from diverse and critical perspectives. Of particular interest currently
are any papers investigating the ties between Rand and such thinkers as
Aristotle and Nietzsche.

For information on our current issue (Spring 2001), which features the
first comprehensive scholarly forum for the discussion of Ayn Rand's
aesthetics, go to our website at:

We are indexed by several abstract services, including MLA DIRECTORY OF
PERIODICALS and MLA INTERNATIONAL BIBLIOGRAPHY.
