CALL FOR PAPERS: POSTCOLONIAL REVISIONS OF EARLY MODERN HISTORIES. (Deadline
3/1/04; Book Collection)
Unpublished essays that engage the Postcolonial treatment of Early Modern
texts and contexts from the perspective of contemporary novelists are
invited for a collection entitled Postcolonial Revisions of Early Modern
Histories. The book furthers a dialogue not only between Postcolonial and
Early Modern Studies from the relatively neglected vantage point of the
Postcolonial fiction writer, but also seeks to revise Postcolonial Studies
by extending its attention to regions and literatures that are only
beginning to be included in its corpus. As such then, contributions that

CFP: White Male Embodiment (04/01/04; Collection)

=20

We are gathering articles for a proposed collection on the white male
body as text and representation.

Recently, a number of scholars have responded to the lack of scholarship =
pertaining to manhood and the male body, and have paid increasing =
attention to the role and status of white men. This recent work suggests =
that embodying white men usefully dismantles the myth of a monolithic =
disembodied privileged white manhood. Not surprisingly, this still =
relatively new focus on the white male body and white male difference =
has provided a beginning rather than an end and still leaves a =
significant gap.

CALL FOR PAPERS

Philament, an international online peer-reviewed journal of postgraduate
scholarship in the fields of cultural studies and the literary arts, now
invites contributors for its fourth edition, UNTITLED. After two consecutive
topic issues, UNTITLED is to be a break from theme, and yet a theme in itself.
Contributors are invited to put forward submissions that are of any nature and
on any subject, however we also hope to encourage the exploration of UNTITLED
as its own specific concept.

Hungry Words: Images of Famine in the Irish Canon

Deadline extended to May 15, 2004

Abstracts of 500 words or essays of around 9,000 words are being solicited
for Hungry Words, an anthology which will examine representations of hunge=
r
or famine in the works of canonical Irish authors. The terms =B3famine=B2 and
=B3canonical=B2 are, of course, loaded ones in Irish studies, and it is my
particular desire to collect essays which question the various
manifestations of these terms in recent literary scholarship.
