The following affiliate organizations have requested that RMMLA post announcements of their publications. We post these in alphabetical order as we receive them. We do not guarantee the timeliness of an entry, nor do we participate in any way in the review or selection of these publications.

  • Marginalia, a publication of Western State College of Colorado
    RMMLA members are invited to submit their personal creative work in English or a foreign language to Marginalia, the literary magazine published by the English and Foreign Language staff at Western State College of Colorado. Foreign Language contributions will be printed in both the Foreign Language and English translation on facing pages. (The author himself/herself can provide the English transation or the Marginalia staff can translate from French or Spanish). We also invite book reviews on any book of literature, in English or a Foreign Language, as long as the book is either out-of-print or published by a small or academic press. Please email contributions to Dr. Helynne Hansen at HHansen@western.edu or mail hard copies to:

  • For a future issue of the ADE Bulletin*, Douglas Steward, Associate Director of Programs and Associations of Departments of English would like to assemble a selection of brief statements by professors (of English, other languages, comparative literature), directors of language centers, and librarians that provide practical advice and helpful anecdotes about how to motivate undergraduate English majors and graduate students in English to undertake the substantive study of languages other than English. The goal is to provide English professors with strategies for inspiring their students to undertake language study, as distinct from imposing language study through pro forma requirements.

    The ADE welcomes two- to five-page, double-spaced statements that address any of the following:

    1. why language study is important for English majors, in particular, at the undergraduate and graduate levels
    2. how English professors' everyday pedagogy can motivate English students to study other languages
    3. how other languages can be integrated into the work of the English major
    4. how English students can overcome obstacles, such as numerous requirements, to pursuing advanced language competence
    5. how study abroad in a non-English-speaking country benefits English students
    6. examples of how language study has benefited you or English majors

    Doug looks forward to hearing from you and hopes that the ADE will have the opportunity to consider a contribution from you for publication in this special section. The deadline for submissions is 30 November 2007.
