The Other Deadline on April 15

[Francoise Rosset]

... is the deadline for submitting a panel proposal (just a proposal, 
not a full panel) to NeMLA, the NorthEast Modern Languages 
Association, a regional affiliate of the MLA.

1. NeMLA will hold its next convention in Montréal, Québec, April 
7-11, 2010.

2. The Slavic world is regularly under-represented; we don't have a 
section of our own, we're in with comp lit. That's we because we 
participate so little.

3. This past convention was in Boston. The panel I chaired on Russian 
poetry was absolutely terrific, four great papers, but very little 
audience -- no Slavic departments in Boston, I gather :-), and there 
apparently was no other Slavic panel.

4. You can submit a panel or session online -- again, just the panel 
-- at
http://www.nemla.org/convention/proposepanel.html.
It does require you be a member (but sometimes they wave that).
Please, let's make our presence felt.

5. I'm proposing another panel on Russian poetry, but if anyone else 
was going to propose something similar, let's get in touch, and figure 
out who submits what.

Best wishes,
