ADS Sessions at MLA 2004

[Michael Adams]

Dear Colleagues,

I am pleased to announce that one of the ADS sessions at this year's MLA convention will consist of papers in memory of James Sledd.  I have in hand another excellent submission titled "English, Spanish, and the New Nativism," but we are still two papers short to complete our program.  If any of you are interested in pursuing the subject of that paper, or anything remotely related, or, I guess, anything at all, please, please submit an abstract to me as soon as possible.  MLA deadlines are strict, and I really must have everything sent to them by the end of the month.  Please remember that, in order to particpate in the MLA program, one must be registered as an MLA member by April 1.

Feel free to pass this call along to colleagues (including graduate students) who may not be on this list.

Thanks so much!

Michael
