Call for Publication


Contributors are invited for the forthcoming edited collection of essays
Boundaries: Critical, Creative and Interdisciplinary methods of Making,
Breaking, and Negotiating Boundaries*

The papers presented at the recent ‘Boundaries: Critical and Creative’
Postgraduate Conference at Loughborough University in June 2006
highlighted the quality of academic research being done which
interrogates, acknowledges and challenges boundaries in critical and
creative literature. This collection is in part inspired by and, in
part, a response to the success of the conference and the wide range of
high-quality academic discussion that came from it.

This book has been contracted by Cambridge Scholars press and the
anticipated publication date will be autumn 2007. Successful
contributors will be expected to submit a 6000-8000 word article
(excluding notes) that addresses the ways in which critical and/or
creative boundaries apply to their research.

Subjects might include, but are not limited to: Geographical boundaries;
Sudden boundaries: Wartime shifts in geographical borders; Cultural
boundaries; Boundaries of translation between different languages;
Sense/Nonsense; Reason/Unreason; Life, Death and the Afterlife;
Exceeding human boundaries: ESP, telepathy, mediumship; Interzones:
automata, robots and science fiction; Critical/Creative boundaries;
Historical events/fictional depiction; Writing creatively about
other cultures; Moral responsibility/creative licence; The literary
canon; Literary boundaries: genre; The boundary of the stage in theatre;
