Call for papers

Tessera considers only submissions made in response to our calls for papers.
We invite contributions in English and/or French of texts both verbal and
visual. We encourage play along borders, especially crossings of the 
boundary
between creative and theoretical texts. Please send three hard copies on 
which
your name does not appear. Include a short summary of the piece and a 
separate
brief biographical note (with your postal and email address). 
Manuscripts will
not be returned.

Languages
What is the status of language in feminist and queer thought? A reflexion on
maternal language and the language of the mother is present in the 
tradition of
womenıs studies. Today, in a generalized context of bilingualism and global
polylingualism, can we still wish to found institutions in the maternal 
tongue?
What place does language occupy in the way that we conceive of (sexual, 
ethnic)
identity? Tessera invites you to submit texts, critical and/or creative, on
these (and other) aspects of languages. Deadline: August 30th 2005.

Please send your submissions to:
