* The Encyclopedia of Popular Fiction, forthcoming in 2008 from Facts on
File, is seeking contributors. We encourage prospective authors to consult
our website (see below) for available entries.
     Our encyclopedia is intended as a guide to bestselling contemporary
fiction, covering those works typically neglected by more "literary"
guides. We include entries on authors whose work has reached, or
consistently come very close to, the annual "top 10" list of bestsellers
during roughly the past 25 years (1980 to the present), along with entries
on a representative selection of individual works which have reached "top
10" bestseller status in a particular year during this period. Works

Articulations 2007, taking place on October 12 and 13, will experiment with
the act of entrance and attempt to investigate the resulting violence of
intervention. We will grapple with, face, grasp at, take on, and struggle
through the act of entrance at multiple sites scattered throughout the Twin
Cities. Please send a short C.V. (no more than two pages) and a 250-word
statement in which you describe your research interests and how you believe
they correspond to the goals of this conference, as well as any disability
accommodations, to George McConnell at Articulations2007_at_gmail.com by May
30, 2007. **WEBSITE: http://articulations.umn.edu
