CFP: Encyclopedia of the Middle East and South Asia


CFP: Encyclopedia of the Middle East and South Asia
Deadline: August 15, 2004

Call for contributing articles: Encyclopedia of the Middle East and South Asia

This five volume encyclopedia, to be published by M.E. Sharpe, is primarily focused on culture, history, religion, geography, and archeology rather than politics, economics, and current events. Note that politics, economics, and current events will be subsumed into categories such as culture and history. The encyclopedia is organized according to a five level principle by which the most general categories are designated as level one. Topics designated as level four or five represent the highest level of specificity. Though the encyclopedia is invested in the singular character of regions, cultures,
people, languages, etc., it is also largely invested in demonstrating how the regions of the Middle East and South Asia have interacted over time. Additionally, the encyclopedia is aimed at scholars of varying levels and ages such that a high school student may find the encyclopedia as informative and useful as a college student. Listed below is the current level one headword list:

Archeology
Art and Architecture
Geography: Physical and Political
History: Imperialism and Colonialism
Language
Literature
Mythology and Folklore
Politics
Religion
Society and Culture (including food, clothing, dance, music, etc.)
Trade and Economics

Varied levels of contribution are encouraged. All inquiries will receive an extended headword list as well as a more detailed description of contributing article guidelines.

Please email all inquires along with a brief C.V. by August 15, 2004 to:

Gordon Newby
Professor of Islamic and Jewish Studies
Chair
Department of Middle Eastern and South Asia Studies
