Computing/Theorizing/Communicating

How do we, both consciously and unconsciously, shape our tools and
vice versa? The Computer Studies in Language and Literature
Discussion Group of the Modern Language Association invites papers for
the 2004 MLA Conference (Philadelphia, 27-30 Dec) on the subject of
the causal relationship between computing tools and research and/or
pedagogy. More specifically, we seek papers that explore impacts of
computing tools (e.g., databases, text analysis software, multimedia,
etc.) on theorizing research, teaching, and communication between
language and literature researchers, students, and the wider
community. The arenas of application might include, but are not
necessarily limited to, literary, composition, rhetoric, film,
archival, stylistic, or linguistic studies. We especially hope to
encourage the submission of abstracts that recognize and explore the
ways in which the tools shape the discipline and/or theory.
