> Call for Papers for Aspasia 3: The Gender History of Everyday Life
>  
> We are soliciting articles of 6,000 to 8,000 words for inclusion in Aspasia
> Volume 3 (to appear in 2009). The theme of the volume will be:
>  
> The Gender History of Everyday Life /Alltagsgeschichte/Histoire de la vie
> quotidienne
>  
> This issue of Aspasia will be dedicated to the practice of everyday life, to
> themes linked to the lived, everyday aspects of gender identity. In
> particular, we are interested
> in submissions that address the following questions: How have broad
> institutional frameworks ­ religious, social, economical, political, and
> cultural ­ related to the ways in which average women and men have shaped
> their gender identities? And vice versa: how have (changes in) gender
> identities and relations influenced broader institutional frameworks and
> fostered the development of particular lifestyles and divisions between work
> and recreation/leisure/entertainment?
> More specifically, how have religious institutions¹ assumptions about gender
> norms shaped the religious practices and spirituality of lay women and men?
> How have
> sexual norms impacted how women and men perform and negotiate their
> sexual identity? How have specific marital traditions, such as
> patrilocality, influenced how women and men relate to each other in couples,
> and how gender is understood in small local communities? How have modern
> economic processes changed economic empowerment along gender lines? How have
> commercial practices challenged or secured specific understandings of
> gendered work and identities? What changes did state socialism bring to
> women¹s and men¹s gender identities and daily lives, and how did that change
> over time (through the impact of industrialization, urbanization, an economy
> of scarcity, etc.)?
>  
> These and other questions that engage with the lived, everyday aspects of
> femaleness and maleness, femininities and masculinities in Central, Eastern,
> and South Eastern Europe (CESEE), represent the broad focus of Aspasia¹s
> next issue. In all cases we are interested in how gender intersected with
> other categories of identity and social organization ­ class, ethnicity,
> nationality, location, age, and sexuality ­ in shaping the history of
> everyday life. 
>  
> Contributions could highlight specific case studies, be more broadly
> comparative, or address issues pertaining to the methodologies and
> theoretical underpinnings for working on these aspects of historical
> research and analysis. They can deal with all historical periods. Overall,
> we are interested in innovative essays, both in approach and in focus, so
> long as they remain anchored in the regional context and gender analysis
> that are the foundation of our yearbook.
>  
> The final deadline for submission is 1 October 2007. Please send a copy as a
> Word attachment to: Maria Bucur: mbucur at indiana.edu
