_JAC: A Journal of Composition Theory_ invites articles for an upcoming special issue devoted to composition theory and postcolonial studies. This special issue will explore the ways in which these two areas of study may most productively inform one another as well as the ways that theories of composition are--or are not--responsive to the issues raised most persistently in postcolonial studies. Articles should focus not on critiquing literary texts or on describing particular classroom techniques, but rather on analyses of how concepts articulated within postcolonial studies affect, or can affect, writing and reading processes, theories of composing, theories and practices of literacy, the history and politics of rhetoric and composition, or other related issues.
Articles should be 3,500 to 7,500 words in length and use current MLA style format. Please submit two hard copies and one disk copy by to Andrea A. Lunsford and Lahoucine Ouzgane, c/o Department of English, Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio 43210.
