11.04.2025 09:14 — 👍 4 🔁 1 💬 2 📌 0CALL FOR PAPERS 'CULTURES OF CARE IN SCOTTISH WOMEN'S WRITING' Papers are invited for a special issue which will explore the myriad ways in which the concept of care has been imagined by Scottish women writers. 'Care' encompasses a diversity of meanings across philosophical, moral, and spiritual traditions; in practices which range from social to medial to therapeutic, and beyond; and in semantic terms evokes ideas of nurture, protection, welfare; feelings of solicitude, concern, love. ‘To care for’ someone, or something, is both to experience, and to enact, such affect with vigilance and a kind of watchful attention. We are interested in the ways in which Scottish women writers - across a variety of genres and forms - have imaginatively explored the concept of care as ethos and/or practice. We also invite a range of theoretical and disciplinary approaches from (for example) environmental humanities; medical humanities; history of emotion studies. Themes which might be explored include, but are not limited to: care of, and for self; care of, and for others, including communities and networks; care for nature, environment, and non-human others; therapeutic and/or medical care; concepts of welfare (individual and collective); ideas of nurture; expression of affect and emotion (including anxiety); care as cultural activism; writing/ creating as an act of care; the experience of being taken care of. Please send 200-word abstracts and a short bio to s.m.dunnigan@ed.ac.uk and amcinto9@ed.ac.uk by Thursday 30 January 2025
