We are bringing out an edited collection of essays with the working title Time is Power: Temporality and Caste. Time is an ontological phenomenon organized around humans’ need for social interaction and collective life, often compelling individuals to be chrono-normative or abide by a rigid clock. Currently little scholarship exists which examines the power of time and temporal agency in an environment organized by systems of caste and other intersecting identities.

ReFocus: The Films of Guru Dutt

deadline for submissions: 
Wednesday, November 20, 2024

Guru Dutt’s films are integral to the golden age of Hindi cinema as they were both critical and commercial successes. In a short career spanning twenty years, Dutt has served as an actor, a director, and a producer. His versatility is testament to a deep understanding of every aspect of filmmaking. Critics contend that contradictory ideas coalesced in his movies. A prominent theme of nationalism is at the heart of Dutt’s oeuvre. While he set out to refashion Indian national identity, Dutt envisioned a utopia for the new nation. Ideologically, Dutt was influenced by Nehruvian socialism, which finds its expression in his selection of subjects and themes. His movies also critiqued the new nation’s failure to afford equal opportunities to every citizen.

Rejoinder Call for Submissions -- Dissenting Feminisms

updated: 
Wednesday, September 25, 2024 - 6:08pm
Rejoinder Journal/Institute for Research on Women at Rutgers
deadline for submissions: 
Sunday, December 15, 2024

From campaigns against disenfranchisement to protests against sexual and gender-based violence, feminism has historically combined dissent—against exclusion, subordination, and prevailing power structures—with a focus on the imperative for social and political transformation. This issue of Rejoinder explores the history of feminist dissent and how it has shifted through the decades, both for activists and academics. In addition to a historical focus, we seek to address contemporary manifestations of dissent within feminism, exploring who successfully forges narratives that challenge feminism’s dominant iteration(s)—and what accounts for their success.

A Hundred Years of Flannery O’Connor: Re-Visiting Her Legacy

Wednesday, September 25, 2024 - 6:08pm
Universidad Complutense de Madrid
deadline for submissions: 
Friday, December 13, 2024

The year 2025 will mark the centennial of one of the most powerful voices in twentieth-century American Literature. Author of a reduced fictional production (two novels and three collections of short stories), Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964) remains among the most widely praised authors of the United States, to the extent that, shortly after her premature death, claims by, among others, Brainard Cheney, Robert Giroux, and Caroline Gordon were made about the country having lost their next Nobel Laureate for Literature. Alternative history aside, what is true is that the last century of American literature would have lost an enormous amount of its meaning without the existence of Flannery O’Connor’s writing.
