Theme: "Beyond the Digital Divide? Investigations of
Internet Access and Agency in a Mobile Era"

The original CFP for this collection had the wrong word count for submissions. The corrected CFP follows:

Shelves and shelves have been filled with scholarly attention to baseball in American history, culture, literature, politics, etc.; likewise, shelves and shelves have been devoted to the study of humor (in American history, culture, literature, politics, etc.). Yet, surprisingly little has been said about the relationship between the two.

Proposed is a collection of new essays on the relationship between humor and baseball (in American history, culture, literature, politics, etc.). Topics might include, but certainly are not limited to:

A CFP was issued last year about a volume being put together that will examine
the relationship between classical and biblical ideas in Great Britain and
Western Europe in the early modern period (c1536-1702).

For various reasons some authors had to pull out, and we have lost contact with
others whose email has apparantly changed, and we were not given new contact
details.

Points of Entry, the journal dedicated to critical examinations and orginal examples of narrative literary journalism (also variously described as "literary journalism," "narrative news," "narrative journalism," "faction" [Australian usage], "literary nonfiction," and "creative nonfiction," as well as the "new journalism" in the 1960s) is still accepting book reviews 1,000-1,500 words in length. Submissions for the 2006 issue are due by May 1.
 
Mail one hard copy, and e-mail a Microsoft Word attached file of the piece to:

Special issue of *Social Semiotics*:

Mediated Citizenship(s)

The concept of citizenship is under attack and revision from all sides.
Scholars, politicians and pundits alike decry the decline of participation in
conventional politics. Some view mass media as the culprits of growing
disenchantment among citizens. At the same time, recent years have also seen the
rise of new social movements and forms of activism, which involve new
generations of citizens. Global flows of capital, people, and media content
present new challenges to citizenship.
