And of course we could post all of our own colloquium info. Sometimes I see very obscure calls for papers (in Europe or US) and think it's a shame to delete them but don't know who would be interested. Even if you weren't submitting sometimes it's nice to know that something's going on in France when you're going there, or in NY, or in Berkeley or wherever... Any feedback?? If I did set up a web page would any of you have things to add? Has anyone seen a good one for French or Romance Lang.? It would be great to include all sorts of conferences and not just the big official ones that everyone knows about - please respond.

Cordialement votre jmv * 'The Third Space': cross-cultural and multi-racial identities * A special edition of MOTS PLURIELS, to be published in 1998, invites contributions on the subject of inter-racial, multi-racial, multi-ethnic, or cross-cultural identities. Just as the binary gender division, man and woman, may be complicated by a range of border-crossing identities, so the fundamental binary race division (us and them, white and black) is challenged by the complexity of inter-racial combination. Does such multiplicity weaken the possibility of challenges to dominant discourses of power? Or does it rather expose 'the limits of any claim to a singular or autonomous sign of difference - be it class, gender, or race'. The author of this last suggestion, Homi Bhabha, describes a 'third space', which holds 'assignations of social differences - where difference is neither One nor the Other but something else besides'. The multiple and problematic terminology by which 'third space' identities may be designated is itself an indication of rapidly shifting meanings in this area. We look forward to hearing from those for whom such cross-border experience is a source of reflection and insight. _____________________________________________________________________ Short articles (2,500-3000 words) written in English or in French and original works of creative fiction (no more than 4 to 5 pages) can be sent to the guest editor of this issue: Dr Maureen Perkins Department of History University of Western Australia Nedlands, Australia 6907 or via email to mperkins@arts.uwa.edu.au The deadline for submission is the first week of May 1998. _____________________________________________________________________ MOTS PLURIELS is a refereed electronic and international journal open to those wishing to share their point of view on important contemporary world issues.

Comité scientifique : Christiane Albert, Marie-Claire Chatelard, Gérard Lahouati, Jean-Gérard Lapacherie. La francophonie peut être appréhendée selon plusieurs perspectives : didactiques, historiques, linguistiques ou encore littéraires. Ce colloque retiendra essentiellement la perspective littéraire et sera centré sur la question des identités culturelles en ayant pour objet les différentes articulations possibles entre la singularité de tout discours littéraire et la littérature comme expression d'une identité culturelle collective, conception qui fonde la plupart des pratiques littéraires francophones. En effet, les différents modes d'appropriation du français par des hommes dont ce n'était pas la langue maternelle ont permis l'émergence de littératures qui définissent une francophonie plurielle comme lieu d'expression de partenaires appartenant à des cultures différentes. Ces littérature sont caractérisées par des stratégies différentes par rapport au français et ont abouti : - soit à la créolisation, l'africanisation ou d'une manière plus générale au métissage de l'écriture. - soit à des échecs et à des situations dramatiques, que l'on peut dire de "déshérence", lesquelles caractérisent des francophonies anciennes et naguère florissante. -soit à la prise de conscience, à la suite d'événements historiques parfois tragiques , qu'une langue comme le français peut, pour des écrivains et des intellectuels, être un choix de résistance. Il serait intéressant de confronter les résultats auxquels sont parvenus ces processus en prenant en compte : -les types de relations qui s'établissent entre langue, culture et littérature - entre le français comme langue véhiculaire et les différentes variantes du français littéraire. S'agit- il de rapports d'opposition et /ou de complémentarité ? -la façon dont s'articulent les notions de différences culturelles et les valeurs fondées sur le principe d'universalité. Le concept de spécificité culturelle est, en effet, ambivalent. Il est à la fois reconnaissance d'une altérité mais est aussi une façon de marquer sa différence. N'implique-t-il pas pour les littératures francophones un risque de fragmentation, de régionalisme , voire d'exotisme Comment ces littératures parviennent-elle à éviter ce piège ? Y parviennent-elles toujours ?

Grauby) Department of French, UNSW (Dr M. Royer) Over the years, France has seen the emergence of several debates on the creative process (Barthes, Derrida, Cixous, Irigaray, Anzieu etc.). Without limiting itself to the perspective of French thinkers, this conference will look at the processes involved in creative work, especially writing, from the moment of conception through to final publication but papers on other art forms (film, fine arts, etc...) are welcome. We are seeking offers of papers on the following themes: o The writing process o Media (including cinema) and multimedia in creative practices o Textual genetics and the editorial process (conditions and constraints) o Feminine writing o Gay and queer writing (including autobiographical writings on AIDS) o Post-colonial writing o The body in the creative process o Popular culture and creativity o Philosophy and aesthetics o Cross-cultural creation These themes are not exclusive, proposals and suggestions for other themes are welcome. Offers of papers in French or in English will be considered and we would like to encourage research students from various disciplines to offer papers on their current research. The publication of the conference papers is envisaged. Abstracts should not exceed 100 words and should be sent by 1 March to: Dr Michelle Royer Department of French UNSW NSW 2052 Sydney Australia e-mail: M.Royer@unsw.edu.au OR Dr Francoise Grauby Department of French Studies University of Sydney NSW 2006 Australia e-mail: francoise.grauby@french.su.edu.au ________________________________ From balzac-l@CC.UMontreal.CA Fri Dec 26 18:33:52 1997 Return-Path: Received: from effraie.CC.UMontreal.CA (effraie.CC.UMontreal.CA [132.204.2.22]) by orion.sas.upenn.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8/SAS.04) with ESMTP id SAA17464; Fri, 26 Dec 1997 18:33:51 -0500 (EST) Received: from (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by effraie.CC.UMontreal.CA with SMTP id SAA17302 (8.6.11/IDA-1.6); Fri, 26 Dec 1997 18:31:46 -0500 Date: Fri, 26 Dec 1997 18:31:46 -0500 Message-Id: Errors-To: balzac-l-request@CC.UMontreal.CA Reply-To: balzac-l@CC.UMontreal.CA Originator: balzac-l@cc.umontreal.ca Sender: balzac-l@CC.UMontreal.CA Precedence: bulk From: Jean-Marie Volet To: Multiple recipients of list Subject: "Appel d'articles": Football en Afrique X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas X-Comment: BALZAC-L Une liste pour le domaine des litteratures francophones.

La parution est prévue pour fin mars 1998. L'objectif est d'appréhender le football, sport-roi dans de nombreux pays africains, d'un point de vue anthropologique, sociologique, politique et littéraire. L'accent devra être mis en particulier sur la place du football dans la vie de la cité africaine, sur son rôle de socialisation et d'animation, sur la genèse des équipes, la place des ethnies dans leur organisation et leur gestion au quotidien. On devra également s'interroger sur l'impact de ce sport dans le processus de construction de l'unité nationale, de même que sur l'exploitation ou la récupération politique des victoires tant des clubs que des équipes nationales. On pourra également mettre en évidence les infrastructures et les instances de formation, dont les insuffisances se sont avérées dans de nombreux pays, pour relever le paradoxe des performances parfois remarquables et déboucher sur ce qui fait la force et les faiblesses du football africain. Au delà des analyses à caractère général, des études consacrées aux grandes nations africaines de football, notamment celles qualifiées pour la prochaine coupe du monde (Afrique du Sud, Cameroun, Maroc, Nigeria et Tunisie) seront particulièrement appréciées. On n'oubliera pas de relever à ce propos, comment les peuples concernés vivent la qualification de leur pays et ce qu'ils attendent de la participation. Les joueurs professionnels, de plus en plus nombreux dans les clubs européens, ne seront pas oubliés. Et l'on pourrait s'interroger, entre autres, sur le phénomène qui veut qu' on leur ouvre de plus en plus grand les portes (tous pays européens confondus) alors qu'on les ferme sans ménagement aux autres catégories d'immigrés. D'où la question de savoir si ces joueurs professionnels peuvent peser d'un certain poids dans la politique d'immigration de leur pays d'accueil. Outre des analyses à caractère général et des études de cas, des interviews de personnalités non nécessairement impliquées dans le football, mais pouvant apporter une contribution significative à la compréhension du phénomène, pourront être réalisées. De même toute expérience singulière méritant d'être contée sera la bienvenue. (Cf L'exemple de l'Empereur des Mossi, organisateur d'un championnat de football à Ouagadougou et auquel il participe comme gardien de buts, mais sans enfreindre les traditions de son royaume) Les contributions ne devront pas excéder les 3000 à 4000 mots, soit 6 à 8 pages en interligne 2, avec 25 lignes par page. "Mots Pluriels" étant une revue universitaire de référence, les contributions seront soumises à l'évaluation d'au moins deux lecteurs qui en recommanderont ou non la publication. Ceux et celles qui désirent contribuer à ce numéro sont priés de faire connaître, courant janvier 98, le titre de leur contribution, le texte final étant attendu pour fin février.
