Call for Papers

[John Bartle]

CALL FOR PAPERS

I seek three or four panelists for a session entitled DOSTOEVSKY, TOLSTOY,
AND THEIR OTHERS: NINETEENTH CENTURY RUSSIAN LITERATURE at the Northeast
Modern Language Association (NEMLA) Conference in Baltimore, MD on April
17-18, 1998.  As the title suggests, papers which concentrate on the works
of Dostoevsky and Tolstoy (or comparative studies involving one of them)
will be given primary attention, but proposals which focus on other
internationally known Russian writers from this period (Pushkin, Gogol,
Lermontov, Turgenev, Chekhov, and "others") will also be given
consideration.  Please submit a brief (one page or less) proposal by
SEPTEMBER 1, 1997.

For several years a small, but devoted group of Slavicists has been sharing
ideas at a number of panels at NEMLA.  The conference is held annually in
or near a large metropolitan area on the East Coast (Philadelphia,
Montreal, and Boston have hosted the past three), and attendence at the
sessions is generally as good as at AATSEEL or other more traditionally
Slavic conventions.  Those of us who participate encourage other Slavicists
to attend.

Please submit your proposals to me either electronically at:

Or you can send them to:
