Dear Writers and Students of Southern Literature:

The Southern Literature & Culture area of the American
Popular Culture Association is seeking presentations
for the 2006 PCA/ACA Conference in Atlanta next April
12-16. Presentations covering a broad range of
Southern literature pieces and critical approaches are
welcome; presentations should be developed for a
20-minute reading. Creative writing, including
readings of poems and short stories, are welcome
submissions. Critical papers and various (mis)readings
of literature and the culture are also invited. As we
deal with the entire dimension of the South, any
aspect of study is suitable for presentation.

CFP: Cinematic Responses to E.U Expansion (12/20/05; collection)

Call For Contributions

Cinematic Responses to E.U. Expansion (collection)

This collection seeks to explore how various European films and filmmakers
from Western and East-Central Europe as well as the Balkan states are
responding to the expansion of the E.U. and, more broadly, European history
following the collapse of communism. The collection asks: Is there a
totalizing or even coherent image of Europe that emerges from such films?
Moreover, how do we understand such films in light of the fact that one of
the reasons cited for the Dutch and French rejection of the E.U.
constitution is resistance to further European expansion, in particular the
entry of Turkey into Europe?
