UPDATE: Disability (8/15/04; journal issue deadline extended)

Atenea, a multidisciplinary bilingual journal on the humanities and social
sciences, features essays, books reviews, and some fiction and poetry.
URL: http://www.uprm.edu/atenea


The editorial board invites submissions for publication for a special
edition (June 2005) on disability issues. Essays may address a wide variety
of topics such as the issues of disability studies as a field;
representations of disability in literature, film, popular culture, the
media; the intersections of gender, sexuality, race, politics and
disability.

Atenea is published by the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez, which
sponsored "The Discourse of Disability/Congreso Otras Habilidades," the
first conference devoted to disability and the arts, in March 1993.
The conference program may be viewed at this site:
