Subject: CFP Women and/in the history of rhetoric

I am interested in hearing from persons who want to contribute a chapter to a c
ollection of essays on women and/in the history of rhetoric. The book is divid
ed into sections on 1) ancient Greece and Rome, 2) Middle Ages, 3) Renaissance
and Reformation, 4) Enlightenment. Essays may be on the rhetorical activities
(oratorical, written) of historical women, the representations of such in liter
ature/mythology, the rhetorical education of religious and/or upper class women
, genres of women's rhetoric, and so on. I am interpreting rhetoric broadly to
include debate and argumentation but also nonverbal communication, e.g., the na
rrative style of a tapestry, series of illuminated manuscripts, garden, costume
, etc. The collection is interdisciplinary with authors coming from English, C
lassics, Speech, Philosophy, History, Religious Studies, etc.
If you have ideas to propose, please contact: Molly Meijer Wertheimer

CALL FOR DEMOS & POSTERS

November 14-18, 1993



DEADLINE FOR RECEIPT: Monday, August 2, 1993

Last call!!: There is still time to submit a demonstration or a poster for
presentation at Hypertext'93.

Posters and demos allow researchers to present late-breaking
results, significant work in progress, or work that is best presented in
conversation. Poster and demo sessions permit a more direct, one-on-one
exchange of ideas..

Demos are an effective way to present a hypertext technique or application
that is embodied in a working system. Please indicate hardware and
software requirements.

Posters are an effective way to present hypertext ideas, methods,
techniques and empirical findings. Posters can also be used to describe
working systems when supporting hardware/software is unnecessary or
unavailable.

Because of the interactive nature of poster and demo presentations,
presenters should be available at all times during each of the sessions.
In general, this will mean that only one submission will be accepted per
presenter.

This is not a trade show exhibit. Presenters should be directly involved
in the work being presented rather than marketing or sales people.

The proposal should include a two- to three-page description of
* the problem
