- Two weeks left for abstracts! We already have a great range of submissions, and interest from a potential publisher, so please do send us an abstract (200-500 words is fine) if you're keen to join the project. The more languages/context we cover, the better the book will be!
- Call for papers! I'm putting together an edited collection with @hedahlbergdodd.bsky.social on "Monstrous Language": studies of the language of monsters, "others", and the in/unhuman. Please share with any interested scholars! Abstracts are due end of May, with the goal of a complete draft in Dec.
