Contemporary Structures of Renunciation

The Austrian Group for Applied Texts (Gruppe fuer angewandte Texte – GFAT)
is preparing an essay collection that will focus on structures of
renunciation within our contemporary society.

Accordingly, we welcome contributions from cultural and literary theorists
as well as from psychoanalysts, theologians and from other disciplines.

The short essays can relate to: sacrifice, martyrs, new consumer habits,
certain representations of pain and suffering in media etc. The
contributions will be published in English as well as in German
translation.

The publication will appear in October 2004. Please send abstracts of no
more than 500 words and a short CV (max. 200 words) via e-mail to
duschlbauer_at_utanet.at

Deadline for abstracts: 10 April 2004. The selection process will be
completed until 15 April 2004. The selected authors will be informed
within three days after the selection process.
Deadline for submission of essays (max. 3,000 words including
bibliography): 31 May 2004
