CALL FOR PAPERS

"Parables in Drama"

Association for Theatre in Higher Education (ATHE) Conference
New Orleans
July 26-29, 2007

Parables and drama, and specifically parables in drama, work performatively
to "redescribe" the world as we know it and force the audience to perform a
redescription of reality. They deserve our attention for the ways in which the
self and our world are constructed and deconstructed. But most especially,
parables in drama consider layers of readings that highlight what the best of
both genres have to offer.

Saw Palm, a Florida-themed literary e-journal, invites submissions of
?book reviews for its inaugural issue. We're looking for reviews of
Florida work, which may include work from anywhere that concerns itself
with Florida (images, people, themes), or work from Florida writers not
obviously about someplace else. Please email submissions in the body of
the message and a brief bio to sawpalm_at_cas.usf.edu or hard copies to
Saw Palm, c/o John Fleming, Department of English, CPR 107, University of
South Florida, 4202 E. Fowler Ave., Tampa, FL 33620-5550. All mail

Updated CALL FOR PAPERS/Kubrick Collection

We are updating our call for papers for a collection of essays (to be
published by McFarland and Company ) which will address the work of
Stanley Kubrick from a variety of new and fresh perspectives. In
general, we are particularly interested in essays that synthesize
analyses of several Kubrick films as they relate to a particular
topic, rather than single film studies. We particularly
encourage original, groundbreaking analysis and discussions of
overlooked aspects of Kubrick's work.

Preference will be given to essays that are already completed or
nearing completion.

Chapters will
include, but are not limited to the following subjects:
