Topic of panel: Mysticism, literature, and interpretation. Mystics claim
to be divinely inspired. How does one analyze mystic texts or states, or
present them to students for analysis? Approaches to mystic writers, as
well as attempts to analyze mystics (de Certeau, Freud, Lacan, etc.) are
welcome. You do not need to be a member of NEMLA to propose a paper, but if
your paper is accepted you must become a member by Nov. 1, 2000. The
conference will be in Hartford CT March 30-21, 2001. For more general
