OF MASCULINITY

Seville, 2nd-4th March 2000


CALL FOR PAPERS


	</bigger></bigger></fontfamily></bold><fontfamily><param>Times</param><bigger><bigger>Within
feminist criticism the "masculine" has begun to lose its universal and
aprioristic status to be assumed as a social construction. After some
decades of prolific research on gender, basically focused upon the
analysis of female images, we are witnessing a growing concern about
different cultural manifestations of male subjectivity. It is precisely
within the field of representation that we would like to redefine those
patterns of identity/identification that, so far--being the "unmarked"
terms--have hardly been discussed from a critical perspective. Papers
on any of the following topics will be welcomed:

	- Masculinity and ethnicity.

	- Masculinity and violence.

	- Masculinity and transvestism.

	- Masculinity and homosexuality.

	- Masculinity and psychoanalysis.

	- Masculinity and legal discourse.

	- Masculinity and artistic representation.

	- Masculinity and political models.

	- Masculinity and the media.

	- Masculinity and parenthood.

	- The male body.

Proposals (500-words abstract in either English or Spanish) should be
sent <bold>before September 27th 1999</bold> to:
