Deadline for all proposals: October 15, 2005

I am coordinating a set of panels on the topic of "Regional Mothers and
Motherhood" at the national College English Association conference, for
which I am interested in receiving individual or panel presentation
proposals that address ways in which art, film, literature, and other
media have used the figure of the mother to define, represent,
reinscribe, cross, blur, deconstruct, or transgress geographical,
historical, cultural, and/or ideological regions.

Proposals should include the following information:
Name
Institutional affiliation (if applicable)
Mailing address (include zip code)
Phone number and E-mail address
Title of the proposed presentation
Abstract of no more than 500 words
A-V equipment needs, if any
Special needs, if any

If you are proposing a panel, the panel organizer should include the
above information for all proposed participants.

Proposals may be submitted by post, fax, or E-mail (include abstract in
message body).

CEA limits presentations to 15 minutes; panels to 75 minutes (with 3 to
4 presenters to a panel).

All presenters must join CEA by Jan 1, 2006, to appear on the program.
No one may read more than one paper at the conference.
