    A PRESSMAN'S CATECHISM: THE INTERSECTION OF ERNEST HEMINGWAY AND RELIGION

    This is an updated call for manuscripts for a collection of essays on ERNEST
    HEMINGWAY and RELIGION. The collection itself will be composed of
    approximately twelve to fifteen essays.

    The editor seeks essays that address any aspect of religion as it manifests
    itself (or fails to manifest itself) in the works of Ernest Hemingway. The
    focus of the collection as outlined here is broad, and it is so on purpose,
    in the hopes that potential contributors will explore the boundaries of this
    complex relationship, and perhaps even challenge those boundaries. All
    theoretical perspectives will be considered, and papers need not limit
    themselves to fiction or novels. The editor welcomes discussions of
    biographical studies and works of non-fiction, in addition to examinations
    of works of fiction.

    Suggested topics might include, but are certainly not limited to:

    *Hemingway's writing style as religion;
    *Anti-religious elements;
    *Hemingway's Catholicism
    *Spanish religious influences;
    *Religious growth, or lack thereof, in Hemingway's work and in the author
    his life.

    Submissions should be approximately twenty pages in length, inclusive
    of endnotes, in MLA style. Please send two copies of blind manuscript
    with cover letter to:

    Andrew Spencer
    Department of English
    Texas Christian University
    TCU Box 297270
    Fort Worth, Texas 7676129

    Inquiries are welcome. Either contact editor at above address or email
    at:
    Andrew_Spencer@alumni.utexas.net

    Manuscripts must be received no later than November 1, 2000.
