The Graduate Scholars of English Association and the Department of English at ASU are pleased to announce a call for submissions to the 1998 Southwest Graduate Literature Symposium which will be held at Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona. The conference theme, "Visions of Change: (Re)Creating Identity in Times of Transition," will focus upon issues and interests surrounding academic and literary studies in the 21st century, a review of how such changes have been experienced in past literary texts as well as in previous literary theory, and explorations of cultures and ideas that have been challenged by transitions from one space and time to another. The keynote address will be presented by Professor Barbara Babcock, Regents Professor of English and Director of the Comparative Cultural and Literary Studies program at the University of Arizona. The 1998 conference will again take place at the University Club on ASU's Main campus, and a banquet will be offered with the keynote address.

Reflection and discussion on the cultural life of the senses as a topic of inquiry helps overcome a number of oppositions that traditionally wreak havoc in academic work as well as in cultural life in general: between the individual and the social dimensions of culture, the body and the mind, the sense of truth according to sense-data and interpretation as a subjective act, and, last but not least, the universal facts of life and the historically contingent events that shape them. Are the senses universal, or is it possible to speak of culturally specific histories of sense perception? The divisions of academic work as well as of art practice are divided according to the senses into disciplines that derive their self-definition from a specific sense-domain: visual art, music, literature, even such a fundamentally multidisciplinary medium as film, tend to be defined according to the senses involved in the processing of the works of art that address them. These disciplines also tend to be defined as "the history of..." But history is in the present.

In a 1914 letter to a staff member of _Harper's Monthly_, William Dean Howells complained that editor Henry Mills Alden had expressed a "hideous wish for pictures" for Howells's "Hours of Childhood," which the magazine was considering for publication. Insisting that photographs were superfluous to his writing, since he wrote "rather pictorially," Howells also emphasized that the omission of illustrations would give him more space for his narrative and thus would "not scant the hapless reader with a pitiful seven thousand words." As Christoph Lohmann has remarked, Howells's letter suggests not only the decisive technological shifts in illustration that had been occurring since 1870, but it also registers a distinctively fearful and bifurcated conceptualization of these changes. This session will examine the intersection of the material forms of magazine illustration and the ideological debates about literacy, "print," and the visual from 1870 to about 1920. Preference will be given to papers which analyze how specific magazines positioned their readerships in relation to these debates.

Reconciling Romance and Realism, 1880-1900

American literary history typically opposes the successes of the romance to the failures of realism. This panel seeks to examine what Amy Kaplan calls the "strange amalgam of romance and realism." By examining the tension between these two genres, we hope to solicit papers that consider romance and realism as contingent ideological forces at work in the construction of an American social scene. Some questions under consideration: What kind of social reality does each construct? How does literature of this time period represent contemporary concerns about space and place? How are the contingencies of literary form reflected in the shift from rural agrarianism to urban capitalism? In what ways does each literary genre constrict and/or enable discussions of race and gender?

The Women's Studies Centre at the University of Huelva invites proposals for papers on the topic of women's exiles. This topic may appeal to scholars from any of the Humanities and Social Sciences. We would like to discuss the ways in which women have been marginalized throughout history, and how as a result they have, willingly or otherwise, suffered literal or figurative exiles, as well as the mechanisms they have used in order to survive and even progress:

• exiles of the mind and/or the body;
• exile as marginalization of women in language, education, the law, the labour market, society, science and philosophy;
• famous women exiles, revolutionaries and pioneers: returns from exile;
• exile as shelter from a patriarchal world: the cloister, hysteria, madness, magic, prostitution, etc;
• economic and political exiles: immigrant women;
• forced exiles: slavery, war, etc;
• exile as a journey or a flight in search of identity;
• etc.

The Graduate English Society of the University of Houston invites individual papers (15 20 minutes) and panel proposals from Graduate Students. The conference title reflects our interest in keeping the topic open and broad, however, we are especially interested in submissions which exhibit dissident critical practices. For example, such papers may attempt to problematize traditional interpretations or critique the ideologies presented in the subject under study. Regardless of methodology, period, or academic discipline, we seek work interested in questioning and pushing the boundaries that have been established--by both authors and readers. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

• rethinking literary history
• busting / preserving the canon
• (re)fashioning the academy
• (de)constructing identity (race, class, gender)
• ecocriticism / ecofeminism
• pedagogy
• composition and rhetoric
• computers and the classroom
• film
• performance
• popular culture
• cultural studies
• postmodern / poststructural aesthetics
• postcolonialism
• linguistics
• borders
• contexts
• creative writing: personal essays, poetry, fiction

One page abstracts and panel proposals should be submitted to:

Papers from all scholarly fields dealing with comedy, laughter, the unspeakable, the body and laughter, jokes, the unconscious, contagious laughter, the structure of comedy, fools, clowns, and so on, are welcome.

DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACTS: 31 January 1998. Send a one-page (roughly 250 words) abstract to: Adam Sills and Kevin Costa, Dept. English, Clemens 302, SUNY-Buffalo, North Campus, 14260. PHONE: (716) 645-2575. E-Mail: sills@acsu.buffalo.edu or kjcosta@acsu.buffalo.edu

The definition of community is deliberately left general. Presentations may address communities of which Virginia Woolf was a part--for example, Female Modernists, the Memoir Group, the Bloomsbury community, the feminist community, communities of artists, communities formed by letter writing, the lesbian community, the British community, the pacifist community--or not a part--for example, the Apostles, the working class. Presenters may analyze communities that Woolf describes in her writings--for example, the community of the "outsider," of the woman writer, of the village pageant, of the Dalloway's party, of _The Voyage Out_ travellers, of _Orlando's_ biographer. Focuses may be on textual communities outside the spheres in which Woolf is generally explored--for example, the Harlem Renaissance or Socialism--making connections and/or distinctions. Community may be interpreted as national, geographical, pedagogical, sexual, gendered, ideological, economic, racials, cultural, psychoanalytical, colonial, post-colonial. Community need not be restricted to Woolf's own era; a presentation of future, current, or past communities in terms of Woolf would be appropriate--for example, evaluating current communities of critics (Woolf and autobiography studies, Woolf and lesbian studies).

Proposals for individual papers, films or alternative types of presentations, performances, readings, and multi-media presentations are welcomed, as are proposals for three- or four-person panels, workshops, round tables, and conversations. Independent scholars are encouraged to submit proposals.

Proposals must include: one cover page, with name(s) and address(es), institutional affiliations (if any), phone numbers, title of individual paper(s), or panel, and format; and 15 copies of a one-page, 250-word abstract for an individual paper or for each presentation in a panel--include title of paper(s) or panel on the abstract, but _not_ names. Conference sessions will be 90 minutes.

Mail proposals to Georgia Johnston, Women's Studies Program, Saint Louis University, 221 North Grand Ave., St. Louis, MO 63103. Queries? Email johnstgk@slu.edu or call 314-977-3003. Selected conference _Proceedings_ will be published.

Scholarly discussions will be held on the spacious and verdent campus of Drew University as well as in New York City locations of importance to Cather. Through a combination of pertinent scholarly addresses and tours of New York and environs we will soak up some of the richness that fed Cather's life during its later period. Participants are encouraged to consider Cather's relationships with other members of the New York literary community as well as with painters, sculptors, and musicians. The cultural diversity of New York should also provide the stimulus for reviewing Cather's depictions of ethnicity.

CALL FOR PAPERS:
Papers on all aspects of Cather are invited for possible presentation in special sessions. Papers which focus on the colloquium theme are especially welcome. Two hard copies of manuscripts should be submitted by March 1 (15-20 minute presentation time, maximum 3000 words). Send papers and further inquiries to:

Since its first appearance as a series of cartoon vignettes on the Tracy Ullman Show in 1987 and its debut as a weekly program on Fox in 1990, The Simpsons has had multiple, even contradictory, media identities. The most successful animated prime-time show in television history, The Simpsons has consistently garnered high ratings while featuring some of the most acid political and social satire on US television. Now firmly in the mainstream of popular American culture, The Simpsons has its origins in the underground comics of Matt Groening, and while Bart Simpson can be found on lunch boxes and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, the program also has a loyal following which prizes the show for its darkly subversive, even leftist satirical vision. This essay collection proposes to investigate The Simpsons in its dual roles as mainstream TV hit and oppositional satire both to understand more fully The Simpsons as pop culture phenomena and to consider the possibilities for oppositional mass media in a postmodern world.
