"The Abnormal"

What does "the abnormal" refer to? How is our understanding of the term
mediated by cultural, legal or religious practices, and institutions? What
are the social, political, and historical implications of thinking in terms
of norms? And finally, what is the abnormal's role as a category in
different disciplines both within the humanities and in the social sciences?

UPDATE: New Formalism Collection

Extended Deadline 11/20

We invite contributions to a proposed collection of essays that examines
new formalism as a vehicle of literary inquiry. We see new formalism as a
literary, cultural movement that harkens back to new criticism, Russian
formalism, and structuralism, while embracing cultural theory and actively
drawing on new historicist methodologies. Because that’s a lot to cover, we
think it appropriate and timely to take another look at contemporary
literary/cultural theory and to call on scholars to reconsider the ways in
which they approach, analyze, and write (about) texts.
