QUERIES and responses should go to addresses in the message. ss ************************************** This is a call for papers for THE SIXTH ANNUAL UCCB STORYTELLING SYMPOSIUM Dates: June 7 and 8, 2002 Place: University College of Cape Breton, Sydney, Nova Scotia Papers on any topic related to storytelling such as innovative uses of storytelling in academic and other disciplines are welcome. However, this year we are focussing on culture and stereotype. We are looking for papers that, for example, examine the role of culture and stereotype in shaping the story and the reception of the story; or their use, as for example by the media, to remove or create cultural barriers. The Symposium combines a formal day segment which is set aside for the delivery of scholarly papers and presentations to a mixed audience, and an informal evening segment featuring professional storytellers. Papers should be no more than 10 or 11 typewritten pages in order to be delivered in 20 minutes. Queries, one page proposals, or completed papers may be sent to Afra Kavanagh at <[log in to unmask]>, or to the address listed below.
