Subject: CFP: Women on Shakespeare
"No other but a woman's reason"
Women on Shakespeare
CALL FOR PAPERS
It is a common practice nowadays to look at various areas of academic activity
from a gender-specific perspective. However, a publication that would focus on
often marginalized women, standing in the shadow of Shakespeare's genius and his
male commentators' fame, as far as we know, has never been ventured. Thus, our
aim is to illuminate these often neglected, forgotten and seldom appreciated
women placing them in the spotlight of attention on the international stage.
We are planning to publish a collection of essays devoted to Shakespeare and
women -- women who made a significant contribution to Shakespearean studies and
performance as actresses, directors, designers, translators, and scholars.
We expect essays ca 5000 words (or 15 pages), in MLA format, with all the titles
and references in foreign languages to be translated into English. Illustrations
and photographs are welcome, but please remember to include copy right waivers
for any images.
The deadline for proposals is 30 March 2009, however, we would appreciate your
earlier response concerning your contribution and possibly an abstract of your
essay.
Your suggestions, response, enquiries about contributions should be addressed to
