Subject: Re: call for papers
For those who might have missed a previous posting on this matter, I am
accepting proposals for a special session on science in contemporary
British literature for the 1997 MLA Convention in Toronto.  Since I
cannot
accept proposals after April 5, relatively brief (app. one page)
submissions would be fine.  I would also welcome proposals sent by
e-mail.
Thank you,
