New Cinemas is a refereed academic journal devoted to the
study of contemporary film around the world. Recent
developments have brought about a renewal of film industries in the

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to increase the pool of book reviewers for the peer reviewed
web journal I founded in 2000, Consciousness, Literature and the Arts (See

currently available that you would like to review, or indication of general
interest of receiving lists of books available for review two to three times
a year, together with a brief biographical note.

Many thanks

New Jersey Writers Panel 2004

NJ has been an important site of American literary activity for the last two
centuries.

In the past New Jersey has been home to many distinguished American writers
such as Walt Whitman, Stephen Crane and William Carlos Williams. Current NJ
writers include important voices such as those of Joyce Carol Oates, John
McPhee, Amiri Baraka, and many others, as well as being home to major
cultural institutions such as the Dodge Poetry Festival.

Papers on this panel may address any aspect of the poetry, fiction, drama,
and nonfiction writing of NJ authors, New Jersey literary groups, or the
politics of cultural production in NJ.

CALL FOR PAPERS:

Contemporary Theatre Review: Theatre and Globalization We are inviting
submission proposals for a special issue of Contemporary Theatre Review
(February 2005) on 'Theatre and Globalization'.

Globalization is transforming our world: compressing time and space,
challenging the power of the nation-state, juxtaposing and erasing
cultural differences, replacing geographical boundaries with the
weightless flows of global capital, giving new life to ancient forms of
cultural rivalry, bringing all areas of personal, social, and cultural
life within its awesome reach.
