As a multilingual, multicultural conference, it is most appropriate that Montréal should be the location of not only our largest conference but also our conference with the broadest distribution of the modern languages. Set in two architecturally remarkable hotels, above the city’s underground network and Metro, we hope you will be able to experience some of the varied richness of our host city. In addition to Montréal specific sessions during the convention, we have also set up local events to assist you in exploring this rich and varied city, including architectural walking tours and guidebooks by local authority Nancy Dunton. The campus of our host institution, McGill University, is also a close walk away, with beautiful buildings and cultural resources for you. On Saturday afternoon, there will be a reading of Montréal writers, co-sponsored by our journal MLS. Professor Alan Liu’s keynote address, “From Reading to Social Computing”, and his research interests on information culture, cultural studies, technol- ogy, and new media will be complemented throughout the conference by presentations within NeMLA’s newly combined area “Cultural Studies & Film.” Among the highlights of this convention is a preview exhibit “Graph- ic Details: Confessional Comics by Jewish Women.” This complements the Cultural Studies and Film Area’s speaker Mariko Tamaki and sessions on graphic novels. Not only is NeMLA committed to developing the Cultural Studies & Film and World Literatures (non-European) sessions, but NeMLA is asking for members’ discussion about the further development of the organization: the American/British area invites Anglophone scholars for a reception/meeting to discuss the organization of sessions on English lan- guage literatures; and the Diversity Committee is looking at strategies to assure that our membership reflects the profession. Your input is invited. On behalf of the Board of Directors, we are delighted that you are here with us. Enjoy—and we hope to see you in New Brunswick, New Jersey for NeMLA 2011.

  • Feminist Periodicals
    The Un vers ty of W scons n System Feminist Periodicals A current listing of contents WOMEN'S STUDIES Volume 26, Number 4, Winter 2007 Published by Phyllis Holman Weisbard LIBRARIAN Women's Studies Librarian Feminist Periodicals A current listing of contents Volume 26, Number 4 (Winter 2007) Periodical literature is the cutting edge ofwomen's scholarship, feminist theory, and much ofwomen's culture. Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table of contents pages from current issues ofmajorfeministjournalsare reproduced in each issue ofFeminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the follOWing information on each journal: 1. Year of first publication. 2. Frequency of pUblication. 3. Subscription prices (print only; for online prices, consult publisher). 4. Subscription address.

  • Cutting Patterns in DW Griffith's Biographs
    Cutting patterns in D.W. Griffith’s Biographs: An experimental statistical study Mike Baxter, 16 Lady Bay Road, West Bridgford, Nottingham, NG2 5BJ, U.K. (e-mail: [email protected]) 1 Introduction A number of recent studies have examined statistical methods for investigating cutting patterns within films, for the purposes of comparing patterns across films and/or for summarising ‘average’ patterns in a body of films. The present paper investigates how different ideas that have been proposed might be combined to identify subsets of similarly constructed films (i.e. exhibiting comparable cutting structures) within a larger body. The ideas explored are illustrated using a sample of 62 D.W Griffith Biograph one-reelers from the years 1909–1913. Yuri Tsivian has suggested that ‘all films are different as far as their SL struc- tures; yet some are less different than others’. Barry Salt, with specific reference to the question of whether or not Griffith’s Biographs ‘have the same large scale variations in their shot lengths along the length of the film’ says the ‘answer to this is quite clearly, no’. This judgment is based on smooths of the data using seventh degree trendlines and the observation that these ‘are nearly all quite different one from another, and too varied to allow any grouping that could be matched against, say, genre’1. While the basis for Salt’s view is clear Tsivian’s apparently oppos- ing position that some films are ‘less different than others’ seems to me to be a reasonably incontestable sentiment. It depends on how much you are prepared to simplify structure by smoothing in order to effect comparisons.

  • Luigi Ballerini the Gastronome and His "Tablecloth of Plenty"
    La tovaglia che sazia: Luigi Ballerini the gastronome and his "tablecloth of plenty" by Jeremy Parzen "I'm the king, but you can wear my crown." —Antoine "Fats" Domino, John Marascalco, Tommy Boyce (quoted by Luigi Ballerini)1 Three of the most powerful and enduring memories of my years working closely with Luigi Ballerini involve food (and/or the lack thereof). The one is an image in his mind's eye, a scene he often spoke of: Milan, 1945, the then five-year-old Ballerini watches a defiant Nazi soldier atop an armored car, part of a phalanx in retreat from the Lombard capital, leaving it an "open city"; the muscle-bound German bares his chest in the winter cold, as if impervious to pain even in the moment of ultimate defeat. The Nazis left behind a broken city and people, who had already known hunger for quite some time and would not know prosperity and plenty for many years to come. At five years old, Luigi knew hunger all too well. The next is an anecdote I heard him retell repeatedly: Milan, early 1960s (the outset of the Italian miracolo economico, the economic miracle, Italy's "miraculous" post- war revival), a young American guest in the home of his mother asks for some 1 Ballerini, Luigi, "piccolo e grande testamento," Il terzo gode, Venezia, Marsilio, 1994, p. 103. mayonnaise; when no mayonnaise is to be found, the matron of the house handily whisks some olive oil and egg yolks, transforming the materia prima into mayonnaise. The third image was set against the ultimate land of plenty: Brentwood, Los Angeles, during the mid-1990s,
