CALL FOR PAPERS:

Gloria Naylor’s 1996: A Teaching Companion (Edited Collection)

updated: 
Saturday, April 20, 2024 - 12:32pm
Tarshia Griffin, Isaiah Frost Rivera
deadline for submissions: 
Wednesday, May 15, 2024

Gloria Naylor’s fictionalized memoir 1996 (2005) remains the least studied but most controversial selection in her decades-long literary output. Published by Third World Press at the tailend of her illustrious career, 1996 stands in stark contrast to Naylor’s iconic tetralogy — which includes Women of Brewster Place (1982), Linden Hills (1985), Mama Day (1988), and Bailey’s Cafe (1992), as well as the sibling text Men of Brewster Place (1998) — by centering the author herself in its bold critiques of state power and the ways marginalized communities fight to uphold it.

CFP on "The Everyday" (Deadline: March 15, 2024)

updated: 
Wednesday, January 31, 2024 - 4:02pm
Sanglap: Journal of Literary and Cultural Inquiry (10.2, June 2024)
deadline for submissions: 
Friday, March 15, 2024

In the last few years, the Covid-19 pandemic has created an unprecedented experience of the everyday in us. We were all locked up at home somewhere in the world spending time with family or our own selves in isolation. In the absence of the ‘busyness’ of routine public activities, life showed down. In the tremendous fear of whether we would survive the disaster or feel anxiously for our family based elsewhere, we noticed the slow spiralling out of each day, sometimes at the level of the moment, in our lives. Slowness, an awareness of our body and movement, and a deep noticing of our surroundings and our loved ones – in short, a re-cognition of the everyday marked our ‘species’ life.

Call for Papers (Issue 35): Emotion and Affect

updated: 
Wednesday, January 31, 2024 - 4:02pm
FORUM
deadline for submissions: 
Thursday, May 4, 2023

Affect theory turns our attention towards a re-contextualisation of emotional and affective experiences within past and contemporary constructions of race, gender and sexuality. It leads us towards the para-rational zones of lived experience (sensations, disturbances, intensities, etc) and offers new interdisciplinary methodologies. The study of emotionality interrogates the boundary between human and non-human, with contemporary research in ecological feeling playing with the border between humans and other species, nature and geological formations. This issue is interested in how these contemporary and modern affective debates have impacted, and continue to impact, the ways in which we think about feeling.
