CALL FOR PAPERS: SPECIAL PUSHKIN ISSUE OF SLAVIC REVIEW

Articles are invited for a special Pushkin issue of Slavic Review to be
published in 1999.  Essays that address Pushkin's reception in Russia and
the West, recent directions in Pushkin scholarship, institutional
structures that have shaped Russia's myths of Pushkin, and his impact on
later Russian poets, writers, thinkers, and artists are especially
welcome, as are those that challenge canonical views of his life and work.
Historians, social scientists, and scholars of film, literature, and the
visual arts are invited to participate.  Preliminary inquiries and other
questions may be addressed to Stephanie Sandler, guest editor for the
special issue (Russian Department, Amherst College, Amherst, MA
01002-5000; ssandler at amherst.edu), but essays should be sent directly to
Slavic Review, where they will be subject to the journal's usual review
process.  The deadline for receipt of essays is August 1, 1998.
