Call for Papers: Rereading the Canon: Feminist Interpretations of HanS'Georg Gadamer. Seeking submissions of paper that develop feminist readings of Gadamer's philosophy for inclusion in a volume that will be published in the Penn State Press series Rereading the Canon, edited by Nancy Tuana. Invited are paper that address a wide range of issues for feminist theory that emerge from critical and constructive engagement with Gadamer's writings. Of particular interest are the promise and pitfalls of Gadamerian hermeneutics as a resource for feminist theory and methodology in areas as disparate as ethics, politics, epistemology, aesthetics, philosophy of history, theories of subjectivity and relationality, and questions of Otherness. Contributors might also engage, from a feminist position, with Gadamer's debates with Habermas and Foucault: two figures whose work has become a resource for feminist inquiry. The overarching question, then, is what does Gadamer have to offer to feminist thought? Deadline for submission of completed manuscripts is June 30, 1999. Send papers to Lorraine Code, Department of Philosophy, York University, Toronto, Ontario M3J 1P3, CANADA. She is happy to receive and respond to inquiries and preliminary proposals well in advance of that date. (E-mail: )

Call for Papers: Submissions requested for anthology on women and friendship. Short stories, essays, artwork, photos. 3500 words maximum. Send with SASE and bio to: Pentheselia Unlimited, 1243 S. Clinton, Berwyn, IL 60402.
