the gender(ed) rhetoric of the divine; money, sex, and the new economy; the
grammar of gender; the legal and medical formation of sex; erotic religious

QUEEN seeks to rejuvenate rhetoric studies, gender studies,
culture-historical studies, and religious studies by experimenting with
cross-inter-sections of these disciplines. QUEEN seeks to explore the ways
in which power shapes people and people shape power.

make full use of internet technology and the transformation of communication
it engenders.
