Papers are invited that relate to the subject of "The Liquid Beast: Drinking the Animal Body." This collection of papers is intended to complement "The Slaughterhouse and the City," a forthcoming special issue of Food & History. Depending on the number and quality of the submissions, a possible anthology will result. This volume will address the blood, milk, semen, fat, and sweat of the animal, which is not conceived as a material object but as an abject subject. Papers need not focus on the food uses of the liquifed animal, but should be attentive to the problem of cultural categories, the process of symbolic transformation, and the hierarchy of bodily parts. Please submit 500 word abstracts and a CV to Paula Lee, Department of Art History, University of South Florida, 4202 E. Fowler Ave., FAH 110, Tampa, FL 33620, by February 15, 2006.
