Please forward this announcment to any individuals, list groups or others who might be interested: INTERDISCIPLINARY HUMANITIES: CALL FOR PAPERS "DIALOGUES OF FILM AND LITERATURE" Interdisciplinary Humanities is accepting completed articles for a special issue: "Dialogues of Film and Literature." Literary works-especially novels, short stories, and drama-have long served as source material for adaptation into movies, but there has always been a tension between the two media and the artists working in each. We seek articles that examine how those tensions (formal, aesthetic, commercial, etc.) have been explored, exploited, resolved, or otherwise employed by writers and filmmakers. Possible topics include: · Writers making movies · Filmmakers writing literature · Literature into film: beyond adaptation · Film into literature: beyond novelization · Film, literature, and narrative form · Film and literature: beyond narrative · Teaching film as "literature" (K-12, undergraduate, graduate levels) · Teaching film and literature as "art" (K-12, undergraduate, graduate levels) · We also welcome short creative works of fiction, poetry, or non-fiction prose that deal with the experience of reacting to individual films, filmmakers and actors or with the experience of watching films. Papers should be no longer than 6,000 words and should be submitted using any standard format (MLA, Chicago, etc.). Submit papers and creative works no later than December 1, 2001 to Donald F. Larsson Department of English Armstrong Hall 230 Minnesota State University Mankato, MN 56001 Manuscripts will be returned if accompanied by a stamped, self-addressed envelope. You may e-mail papers as formatted attachments in MS Word.
