Proposed Special Session

For a proposed special session at MLA 2005, we invite submissions on the
connections or disjunctions between age and the body in literature and
culture. Studies of literary works from all periods and languages are
welcome, as are analyses of film and other media. Approaches may include
considerations of the language, gendering, medicalization, sexuality,
economics, aesthetics, and psychology of aging.

Please submit 1-page abstracts by 15 March to Cynthia Port:
