    CALL FOR PAPERS FRANCOPHONE CARIBBEAN


    LITERATURE
    The Literary Encyclopedia at www.litencyc.com is looking for qualified writers to enhance its
    coverage of the various volumes of French literature. The list below is not comprehensive or final,
    and new proposals of writers/ works/context essays that are not currently listed in our database are
    also welcome. However, we will prioritize articles on writers and works frequently studied in
    university courses, and those that are highly topical and well-known.

    In addition to publishing articles on canonical and much-taught literary works, the Encyclopedia is
    also interested in making available information about important writers and works that are often
    neglected, and in publishing articles about discrete historical events which are relevant to literary
    understanding. It also seeks to broaden its scope to include more research-oriented articles with a
    pedagogic function, such as 'Critical issues in title' or 'Critical readings of author/ title'. If you are
    interested in contributing such an essay, please contact the relevant volume editor or the managing
    editor.

    All offers of contribution should come accompanied by an up-to-date CV and, in the case of doctoral
    students who wish to offer a contribution, also a short writing sample. The overwhelming majority
    (about 90%) of our contributors are academic scholars, while the remaining percentage is made up
    of highly endorsed doctoral students and independent researchers.

    The Literary Encyclopedia aims to deliver a global understanding of world literatures and cultures
    within an adaptable and responsive digital platform that's ethically conceived, minimalist, but
    packing great functionality. All our articles are solicited by invitation from specialist scholars in
    higher education institutions all over the world, refereed and approved by subject editors in our
    Editorial Board. The LE is thus uniquely selective, reliable and authoritative. Its online format
    allows for rapid publication and frequent updating of articles; its integrated digital resources (author
    life-chronologies, customisable timelines, thematic or course-oriented bookshelves, related article
    clusters, critical bibliographies) respond dynamically to teaching and learning demands.

    More detailed information on the Encyclopedia including its publishing model, editorial policies,
    specific information for authors etc. can be found on its homepage at www.litencyc.com, under
    the ABOUT tab. In order to explore the kinds of content we publish please log in using the casesensitive username 'WinterGuest2016' and the password 'carpentier1904'.

    We hope that you will wish to join us in this enterprise. If you wish to contribute, please contact the
    volume editor, Dr Maeve McCusker ([email protected]), or the managing editor, Dr Cristina
    Sandru ([email protected])
