Historicizing Dissent: Narratives of Revolt, Resistance, and Rebellion from the French Caribbean

CALL FOR BOOK CHAPTERS
"OWEN BARFIELD IN CONTEMPORARY CONTEXTS: EXPLORING HIS THOUGHT AND INFLUENCE"
PUBLISHER: CAMBRIDGE SCHOLARS PUBLISHING, UK
EDITOR CONTACT (for prospective contributors): martin.ovens@univ.oxon.net
Brief Description:
Contributions are sought for an interdisciplinary collection of essays on the Hallmark television channels to be published by McFarland & Co. We are interested in a sustained exploration of the television channel and brand as a cultural phenomenon. At the end of 2017, The Washington Postpublished an article entitled “We can’t take any more of 2017, so we’ve turned to the Hallmark Channel in desperation.” The article described men and women – but mostly women – engaging in a particular brand of escapism from the seemingly daily barrage of bad news: watching Hallmark Channel original movies.
This special issue will focus on ideas of reuse and recombination. How were bits and scraps of materials, textual and otherwise, reassembled into new forms in the nineteenth century? To what ends? Essays might consider these issues in relation to images, fabrics, texts, and more. Possible topics could include scrapbooks, patchwork, quotation, citation, illustration, and any and all forms of recombination. Approaches from all disciplines, including literature, art history, history, music, and the history of science and the social sciences, are welcome, as are submissions that cross national boundaries and/or range across the nineteenth century.
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Now in its fifth year – and following the great success of sessions across Europe – the Psychoanalysis in Our Time research network is delighted to announce the call for papers for our next event, which will take place in association with the University of Gdansk, Poland from 5th to 7th October 2018. The topic for this symposium will be “Psychoanalysis, Nationalism and Ideology”.
We are very pleased to be able to say that the internationally acclaimed philosopher of the Slovenian School, Prof. Alenka Zupančič will be our keynote for this event. Renowned film scholar, Prof. Thomas Elsaesser will also be present to launch his new book and to give a talk on ideology and the abject in cinema.
