MLA call for papers reminder

[Vitaly A. Chernetsky]

Dear Colleagues,

Please note the approaching deadline for the following Slavic-themed
panels for this year's MLA convention (which will take place in
Philadelphia, concurrently with the AATSEEL conference; details are
available at www.mla.org).

"In Hot Water: Spa Culture"
>From Roman baths to "Anna Karenina," taking the waters has created places,
architecture, art, dress, journeys, texts, and rituals. Papers on any
aspect of this phenomenon. Please send abstracts to Hilde Hoogenboom at
hoogenboom at macalester.edu by March 15th.


"Rethinking the Gulag Narrative."
Proposals are welcome dealing with the broad range of issues involved in
reading and interpreting texts written during or about the Gulag
experience (letters, memoirs, fiction, poetry, as well as works in other
genres and other media). Please send abstracts to Vitaly Chernetsky at
vchernet at fas.harvard.edu by March 15th.

Please note that all panelists must be current members of the MLA by April
1st of this year.

Sincerely,
Vitaly Chernetsky
