Literature, Readers, and Democracy

"Democracy depends on engagement, a firsthand accounting of what one sees,
what one feels, and what one thinks, followed by the artful practice of
expressing the truth of our times through our own talents, gifts, and
vocations. Question. Stand, Speak. Act." –Terry Tempest Williams, The
Open Space of Democracy

The Flow Conference (Oct. 26 -29, 2006; Austin, TX) -- a series of roundtable
discussions with topics created by Flow (http://www.flowtv.org)columnists,
organized around the future of television and media culture -- is now accepting

The goal of the Flow Conference is conversation. There are no plenary sessions

As we are finalizing the program for the Society for the Study of
American Women Writers Conference, to be held November 8-11, 2006, in
Philadelphia, we have decided to add a session, hopefully of between two
and four panels, on two areas that are relatively new for the SSAWW:
1. women's popular culture and 2. third-wave feminism.

If you are interested in presenting a paper on either of these two broad
topics, please contact me (at dek7_at_lehigh.edu) as soon as possible, but
definitely before June 30.

The book, provisionally titled (In)fusion Approach,
Interdisciplinarity and Salman Rushdie, is nearly
complete. It focuses on what I propose as (In)fusion
theory. The first section has several essays that
critique (In)fusion theory in relation to aesthetics,
postmodernism, translation theories, environmental
ethics, communication theory among other theoretical
paradigms.
The second section of the book focuses on the use of
this theory and the reading of the fictional works of
Salman Rushdie. It is for this section that I would
like to consider abstracts on Rushdie's novels Fury
and Shalimar the Clown.
The abstracts need to focus on the following things:
