ULBANDUS, the Slavic Review of Columbia University, is now requesting  
submissions for its next issue, which will focus on the visual in

current state of scholarship on intersections between the visual and  
the literary in the field of Slavic studies. Possible topics include,  
but are not limited to:

-intersections between literature and the visual arts, including  
painting, sculpture, architecture, garden design, photography, film,  
theater, and dance
-ekphrasis: what it is, how it is relevant to the study of Slavic literatures
-interactions between the science of optics and literature
-notions of imagination and the mind?s eye
-illustrations of literary (and non-literary) texts
-looking as a literary theme, for instance voyeurism, aggressive or  
unauthorized glances, and transformative or aestheticizing gazes

In addition to scholarly articles, ULBANDUS encourages submission of  
original poetry, fiction, translations, photography and artwork. The  
deadline for submissions is JANUARY 17, 2012.
