[ecrea] Call for Papers: Special issue of the journal Assuming Gender - 'Queer and There'

*Call for Papers: Special issue of the journal /Assuming Gender - 
/'Queer and There'*
**
/Assuming Gender/ would like to invite submissions to our forthcoming 
special issue: 'Queer and There'. In this issue we aim to explore 
contemporary queer theory and its practical and theoretical horizons. We 
welcome submissions which engage with 'queer texts', but also those 
which apply perspectives gained from queer theory to perhaps unexpected 
texts, objects or fields. We would also welcome more 
theoretically-focussed articles, including those which posit challenges 
to aspects of the field.

In respect to the title, 'Queer /and There/', we particularly welcome 
submissions that take queer approaches to, or locate the queer in new 
and unexpected places.
Proposals are welcome from any academic discipline, and can cover any 
historical period. We particularly welcome inter- and multi-disciplinary 
approaches.

For submission guidelines, more details, and a list of suggested topics, 
please see http://www.assuminggender.com/p/call-for-papers.html.

Deadline: *Monday, 2 September 2013*.

Submissions and enquiries should be sent to issue co-editors David 
Andrew Griffiths and Kat Deerfield at (_gender /at/ cardiff.ac).uk_ 
<mailto:(gender /at/ cardiff.ac.uk)>.
