Dear Colleague, as promised earlier this year, we have now converted our jobs and events listings into indexed databases so I would like to invite you to have a look at the 52 vacancies for university professors of English and 27 conference announcements which are currently announced at http://www.university-english.com. We would be grateful if Directors of Graduate Studies would circulate this message to graduate students who are most likely to find the Jobs advertisements of interest. We would also be grateful if you would draw the attention of your students to our companion publication, The Literary Encyclopedia <http://www.LitEncyc.com>, which is also freely available on the net. Announcements of jobs and events can be placed without charge at University-English by departments or scholarly associations. Login information is known to Heads of Department and the executives of registered associations but if you need to register then please ask us to set up a record for you. In November we will enable colleagues to set up profiles for the mail they would like to receive about jobs, events and publications in English Studies or allied disciplines, thus ensuring our profession has a global mailing system which will not lead to cluttered inboxes. We do not release any email addresses we hold to any non-scholarly venture and hope you will approve of our efforts. However should you wish to receive no further mail about University-English please reply with "Unsubscribe" in the subject field and we will delete your mailing address from our lists. Equally, if you know of scholars who have not received our mail but would like to, please invite them to mail us using the word "subscribe" in the subject field. With best regards, Dr Robert Clark, FRSA, FEA Reader in English, University of East Anglia, Norwich NR4 7TJ - UK http://www.university-english.com ********************************************************* British Association for Romantic Studies To advertise Romantic literature conferences, publications, jobs, or other events that the BARS members would be interested in, please contact Sharon Ruston <[log in to unmask]> Also use these addresses to register any change in your e-mail address, or to be removed from the list.
