<DIV>The Editing Modernism in Canada (EMiC) project invites you to visit our
new<BR>website at <A href="">http://editingmodernism.ca</A><BR><BR>EMiC Online
networks our project?s 32 participants and 33 partners from<BR>regions across
Canada and from France, England, and the United States; it also<BR>seeks to
establish new connections with other interested scholars,<BR>institutions, and
publishers. Our participants and partners are editing and<BR>publishing
new print and digital editions of modernist Canadian texts that have<BR>either
fallen out of print or exist only in university rare-book rooms
and<BR>archives. These texts from the early to mid-twentieth century
include not only<BR>poetry, fiction, and <FONT color=#ff0000>drama</FONT> but
also autobiography, correspondence, and<BR>non-fictional prose.<BR><BR>The
objectives of the EMiC project are:<BR><BR>1. to coordinate the editorial
endeavors of our participants and develop new<BR>ways to connect individual
projects and researchers<BR><BR>2. to train students and new scholars using
experiential-learning pedagogies<BR><BR>3. to use a variety of media to
distribute the collaborative research and<BR>editorial work to audiences both in
Canada and internationally, and<BR><BR>4. to develop sustained relationships
among universities, publishers, the media,<BR>public libraries, and non-profit
cultural organizations (book clubs, reading<BR>groups, reading series, literary
festivals) that will contribute to a public<BR>literary culture and ensure that
Canadian modernism becomes an ongoing part of<BR>literary discourse in
Canada.<BR><BR>Providing training and networking opportunities for students and
new scholars is<BR>one of the top priorities of the EMiC project. We invite
students and faculty<BR>to register for our annual summer institutes in textual
and digital editing at<BR>Trent University (TEMiC) and the University of
Victoria (DEMiC), to participate<BR>in our editorial workshops at the University
of Guelph's TransCanada<BR>Institute (2011) and Brock University (2015), and to
attend our conferences at<BR>the University of Toronto (2010) and
Nouvelle-Sorbonne (2012).<BR><BR>Additionally, the project provides
graduate-student and postdoctoral funding,<BR>not only for research
assistantships (for editorial projects) and internships<BR>(for partners and
events) but also stipends for MA and PhD students and<BR>fellowships for
postdocs working on their own editions of Canadian modernist<BR>texts under the
supervision of, or in collaboration with, EMiC participants.<BR><BR>For
information about how to apply for funding, participate in our
training<BR>programs, or propose an editorial project, please visit EMiC Online

there are only my expectations and I can't let anybody in, even though I am
writing for you, hoping that you come in and help me with this book. That's the
only way I can do it. It's the liberation for me, it's the freest place I know.
You know, the freedom of the mind." Toni Morrison.
<BR>______________________________________________________<BR>"Our devices for
mincing human flesh are part of an international machinery. The whole society is
militarized, the state of exception is made permanent, and the repressive
apparatus is endowed with hegemony by the turn of a screw in the centers of the
imperial system." Eduardo
