    Calibrations: Sizing up Spaces, Communities, and Selves
    College Station, TX: 4-7 April 2002

    The Center for Humanities Research at Texas A&M University invites paper
    abstracts (500 words) for its eighth biennial interdisciplinary conference.
    "Calibrations" explores how the nature and scale of human communities and
    identities have shaped the arts, history, literature and language,
    philosophy, political and social thought, and cultural and social
    formations. How do spaces become configured into communities? How do
    subjects navigate communities--locally, regionally, nationally, globally--to
    form and transform identities?
    Such questions will be addressed by panels and by plenary and featured
    speakers, including Trinh T. Minh-Ha
    Rosi Braidotti
    Walter Benn Michaels
    R. Rolando Hinojosa-Smith
    Michael Awkward
    Charles Curran
    Jorge Gracia
    V. Spike Peterson
    Marcus Rediker

    Submissions Due: 15 October 2001
