"Borderlines: Russian and East European- Jewish Studies" seeks submissions in 
history, philosophy, literature, the visual arts, anthropology, and studies that 
explore the intersections among these fields. Particular encouragement will be 
given to submissions that: (1) challenge assumptions about the definitions of 
Jewish Studies and Russian and East European studies; (2) emphasize new 
theoretical approaches; and (3) closely parse formal structures  to get at new 
meanings, or trace a single theme or trope across disciplines, languages, 
geographical regions, and time periods. "Borderlines" also welcomes studies 
that focus on a single author, period, institution, event, or aspect of daily life 
among Russian and East-European Jews.
Editor: Harriet Murav, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
