Call: Article submission request for a book, Inspiration in any Austronesian language

[Edwin Rutsch]

Greetings;
 
I am sending this post because I am looking for native speaking language
experts to contribute a short 300 word article/essay, on the meaning of
the word for "Inspiration" in their language of expertise. This is for
inclusion in an art book I am writing entitled "The Spirit of
Inspiration". 
 
I was wondering if someone on this list would be interested in
contributing such an article for an Austronesian language or would know
of someone who may be interested?
 
The article would include aspects of the following about the the nature
of inspiration in your language of expertise; the definition, etymology,
how it is expressed in the arts and your personal insights.  
 
For more information, I have created a detailed submission guideline
with a sample article which you can view at this URL;
http://Humanityquest.com/Themes/Inspiration/ArticleGuidelines/
<http://humanityquest.com/Themes/Inspiration/ArticleGuidelines/> 
 
I would like to have at least 50 different languages represented in the
book (have 36 so far), so I am trying to spread the word  to as many
different language experts as possible. I would be most grateful for
any:
* referrals to other language experts and teachers. 
* any email lists that I could post to.
* other suggestions for how to get the word out.
