Volume 4 Issue 2: On Embodiment

CALL FOR PAPERS

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS: MONDAY, February 3, 2020

Process: Journal of Multidisciplinary Undergraduate Scholarship is pleased to invite submissions for issue 4.2, On Embodiment. This issue seeks to explore understandings of the body across the humanities and sciences. How do concepts of the body resonate through culture, how have they changed over time, and what form might they take in the future?

We will consider submissions that engage with embodiment in any field, and we welcome authors to consider the following:

• The mind-body relationship

• Sensory experience

• Gender and sexuality

• Embodiment in the media and politics

• Embodied arts and athletics

• Disability

• Illness and care

• Embodied resistance and protest

• The body and technology

This issue of Process will focus on embodiment, but we welcome submissions on any topic. Be aware that general submissions, if accepted, will be saved for a suitable future issue at the discretion of the editorial board.

Please submit pieces for review by following the instructions on the Submissions page of the Process website: www.processjmus.org and include your full name and email address on the submitted document. We accept two general types of submissions: critical essays and non-traditional (or multimodal) compositions, such as poems, short stories, or digital artifacts. All traditional essay submissions should be 2500-5000 words and follow the appropriate disciplinary guidelines with respect to style and citations. Please include a 250-word abstract outlining project goals and how the contribution meaningfully engages ongoing scholarly conversations. For non-traditional submissions, please expand the abstract to 500 words that details the project goals and articulates how the work would meaningfully add to ongoing critical conversations in the special issue.

Questions may be directed to the editorial board at processj@uw.edu.
