The position of English as a worldwide lingua franca has never been more secure than it is today. However, defining "English" can be a tricky business considering the fact that on the large scale no two nations, or on the small scale, no two speakers will utilize the same variety or aspire to the same mythical standard. What does dialect variation in Present-Day English mean for language learners, teachers, and linguists studying the growth of the language? The Discussion Group on Present-Day English Language seeks proposals for papers on a variety of topics including but not limited to:
What does "dialect" mean?
Teaching English to multilingual and/or multidialectal speakers
The history of English dialects worldwide

Over the past several years, a debate regarding the place of online writing instruction has endured on college campuses around the world.

Compound that with the traditional lack of formal education in online pedagogy that most instructors receive.

What contemporary uses can we make of Dada methods, techniques, innovations, and ideas? Should Dada inform our politics? Can it help to break us out of the postmodern ever-same, or is it the already-been-done, as Peter Bürger's Theory of the Avant-Garde might suggest? Where is the Dada apparatus today?
We invite critiques on representations of sexual violence against marginalized groups in South Asian literature, film, and/ or media. Please send 200 word abstract by 15 March 2013 to Namrata Mitra (nmitra@jcu.edu).
We invite essays from interdisciplinary perspectives that address contemporary adaptations of Renaissance literature or art, particularly Jacobean, in film.
Approaches sought include anachronism, narrative disjunction, radical or extreme subject matter, and irreverence toward source material.
Disciplines might include adaptation studies, literature, art history, reception history, genre studies, and historical and theoretical approaches to early modern works and the materials and production of adaptations.
