    Call For Papers: ECOCRITICISM

    The Southwest/Texas Popular Culture Association and American Culture
    Associations are holding a series of panels at the next meeting of these
    groups, March 7-10, 2001, in Albuquerque, New Mexico at the Sheraton Old Town
    Hotel.
    We have met there for the last two years and it has proved to be a perfect
    venue for us, providing as it does the sights, sounds, tastes and museums of
    the Southwest.

    This call is for papers dealing with Ecocriticism, its origins and/or
    cultural and literary implications for the present and future.

    Possible Topics can include anything on Ecocriticism, including a possible
    rhetoric for teaching the subject.

    Ecocritical stance in African American Literature
    In/and American Indian Literature
    In/and political rhetoric
    In/and 19th Century American Literature
    In/and Romanticism
    In/and Hemingway, Falkner, Hawthorne, Cooper, Captivity Narratives
    In/and the Postmodern Novel
    Ecocritical Narrative in (your choice)

    These possible broad subjects are to demonstrate a nearly limitless range of
    possibilities for a paper on Ecocriticism.
