We live in a world of migratory population flows, resurgent nationalisms, and state-sanctioned violence. The next issue of Rejoinder web journal will explore the theme of bodies and borders in the context of these geopolitical phenomena. We invite submissions that focus on how the relationship between borders and bodies shapes our understandings of selfhood, exile, and home. Writing (including essays, commentary, criticism, fiction, and poetry), and artwork should address these relationships from feminist, queer, and social justice-inspired perspectives. We particularly welcome contributions at the intersection of scholarship and activism.
IGA Postgrads Call for Bloggers
The International Gothic Association postgraduate blog is looking for bloggers!
If you are a graduate student working with any aspect of the Gothic, consider writing us a short blog post. It could relate to your work, or any other Gothic tangent that has taken your interest. Blogs should be a maximum of 600 words; short, snappy and conversational, with the aim of sparking conversation within the IGA community. If you want to write a blog longer than 600 words, we would encourage you to split it into two or more parts, but these are supposed to be informal rather than articles or papers. We are keen to hear from anyone interested in vlogging or podcasts.

Registration:
Twenty-Five Years of Regeneration: A Pat Barker Symposium
Saturday 15 October 2016, 10.00am – 5.00pm, Kenworthy Hall, St Mary’s College, Durham University
It is still possible to register for this symposium on Pat Barker’s work. With speakers attending from as far afield as India and Canada, this one-day event includes discussion of the ethics of representation in Barker’s work, of the representational challenges negotiated in her novels (and those of her contemporaries), and of the Regeneration trilogy as gay history.
We hope to stimulate academic research and discussion around the theme of cognition, in relation to language (including language teaching), literature, translation and culture. In every aspect of our lives we make judgments and assessments and encounter judgments and assessments made by others, without necessarily examining closely the perspectives, methodologies or theoretical assumptions on which these judgments are based. What established procedures and canons of seeing and understanding govern the way we teach, the way we translate, or the direction of our research in any given area? Is there a need for these procedures or canons to be revised, modified or even abandoned altogether?
