Call for contributors to an anthology on the work of Terry Tempest Williams
(Edited by Kathleen Chandler and Melissa Goldthwaite)
Deadline for Abstracts (entire manuscripts welcome): January 31, 2002
Terry Tempest Williams has a varied and extensive body of work ranging from
children's stories to memoir to wilderness essays to stories embodying
cultural, spiritual, familial, artistic, and natural landscapes.
Williams's work is read and recognized by diverse audiences and is often
taught in university courses, most frequently those on environmental
literature. We are interested in essays from scholars in literary and
other disciplines that will offer varied understandings of Williams's work.
Her inventive writings are difficult to assign to a particular genre, and
we invite discussion from multiple theoretical perspectives, including
interdisciplinary approaches. Since this anthology is intended to reflect
the range of her work, essays on texts other than Refuge are particularly
welcome.
Essays should be 5,000-10,000 words in length including notes and cited
references.
By January 31, 2002, please send a one-page abstract or complete manuscript
and short CV to Melissa Goldthwaite at Department of English, Saint
Joseph's University, 5600 City Ave., Philadelphia, PA 19131. Email
submissions also welcome (in Word or WordPerfect): mgoldthw@mailhost.sju.edu
Essays accepted for inclusion should be submitted by June 30, 2002.
