Cameron Leader-Picone

from race to historiography to gender takes on strikingly different tenors through literature that
either stands on the margins of, or completely apart from, canons of American Literature. Please
submit abstracts (limit to 250-500 words) on papers for possible presentation at ASA 2008 on
any topic related to popular genre fiction and how its marginal status provides unique insight
into unexpected topics. Possible paper topics include African American detective fiction,

Yet the concept of authority complicates our reading and
writing of and about narrative texts. This complication invites diverse
theorizations, interpretations, and representations from various
branches of English studies, including literary studies, composition,
creative writing, comparative literature, and linguistics.
