CALL FOR PAPERS: CHICK LIT, CHICK FLICKS


CALL FOR PAPERS: CHICK LIT, CHICK FLICKS

We are seeking contributions for an edited collection of essays on the subject of chick lit and chick flicks. The book will be intended for an informed popular audience interested in literature, film, women's studies
and cultural studies. The collection of approximately fifteen original essays will examine the chick lit/chick flick phenomenon from a variety of angles, accounting for both its popularity and the reactions it has
provoked. We envision the book divided into three parts: (1) introductory and cultural-historical analyses, defining the genre, its origins, current trends and future possibilities; (2) critical essays on the genre and its
influence; and (3) readings of individual works, either literature, film, or both. We expect the completed work to provide a detailed contemporary portrait of a vibrant cultural phenomenon.

If you are interested in contributing to this project, please respond by May 1, 2004 with a brief description of your proposed essay. For further information, feel free to contact us.
