Subject:        Call for Papers--RSA 2004

I'm putting together a panel for next year's RSA on "Rethinking
Renaissance Sexualities," which I think may be of interest to scholars
on the list.

Here's the official description:

Pioneering work in the theory and history of sexuality (by Foucault,
Sedgwick, Bray and others) has opened up a rich discussion in
Renaissance studies, but it has also created interpretive dead ends:
essentialism vs.  constructivism, identities vs. acts, etc. This panel
seeks to offer analysis that moves the conversation forward and opens up
new ways of thinking about Renaissance sexualities (both homo- and
hetero). Papers from all approaches (theoretical, historical, literary)
are welcome.

Abstract Deadline: May 1, 2003

Please send abstracts (preferably by e-mail), no longer than 150 words,
to:
