Subject: call for papers
Dear SLS members:
I hope you will think about submitting abstracts for the following
symposium.  The basic idea is to put literature-and-science people
together with science-studies people, and see what happens.  Please
pass
this call on to others who may be interested, and contact me about any
questions you may have.  Thanks, Bruce Clarke
WEBS OF DISCOURSE
The Intertextuality of Science Studies
The thirty-first annual Texas Tech University Comparative Literature
Symposium, "Webs of Discourse: The Intertextuality of Science
Studies,"
will meet on February 5-7, 1998.  Plenary speakers are Donna Haraway,
Lynn Randolph, Marcos Novak, and Carl Rubino.
Is a comprehensive synthesis of science studies across the discursive
disciplines possible?  What roles will the Web and other interactive
technologies play?  We invite discussion of these and related issues by
scholars working in any area of cultural science studies, as well as by
rhetoricians, critical theorists, and literature scholars.
