Scholarship/Medieval Feminist Forum may be of interest to scholars working
on gender and Byzantine culture. For details about membership to the
SMFS/MFF, go to:

CALL FOR ARTICLES
We invite submissions for a special issue of the Medieval Feminist Forum
(volume 44, number 2) to address the past, present, and future of feminist
approaches to medieval art and visual culture. Some contributors may wish
to highlight the ways in which feminist perspectives have enriched the
understanding of medieval art or to identify the contributions that
studies of visual materials have made to feminist work in medieval
studies. Others may prefer to identify dead ends to which feminism has led
medieval art history or to critique ways in which feminist scholarship on
medieval visual culture has been co-opted in a post-feminist age. We also
welcome essays on current research that utilize feminist approaches and
essays that seek to chart a path forward for feminist work on medieval
art. Inquiries from potential contributors may be addressed to either or
both of the co-editors of the issue:
Marian Bleeke, Assistant Professor of Art History
Department of Art, Cleveland State University
[email protected]
Felice Lifshitz, Professor of History
Department of History, Florida International University
[email protected]
The deadline for completed submissions, which should be sent via email to
Felice Lifshitz, is August 15, 2008. Style guidelines and other
contributor information for MFF are available on the website of the
Society for Medieval Feminist Scholarship
(www.minotstateu.edu/mff/contributor.shtml).
