The Spike Lee Reader will focus on this important cultural producer, bringing together the most seminal writings to explore crucial contemporary questions of race, politics, sexuality, gender roles, class, economics and media impacts. The reader will also seek to stimulate discussion by examining Lee's various socio-political claims and their ideological impacts. The editors are interested in carefully conceived proposals for manuscripts which critically examine Lee as either filmmaker, producer, director, actor, author, marketing executive, social critic, or entrepreneur. All methodological and theoretical approaches are welcome. Potential authors should submit four (4) copies of a preliminary proposal in the form of an extended abstract of approximately three pages prepared in APA style, 5th edition. Proposals should include: (a) a discussion of the specific focus of Spike Lee along with a compelling rationale for this focus; (b) the thereotical and methodological frameworks that will be used in critiquing Lee; (c) a preliminary sketch of what claims the author(s) expect to make; (d) a brief author biography. A title page must be submitted as a separate page and should inlcude all contact information (i.e., name, mailing address, email address, telephone number, fax number). Abstract submissions will be peer reviewed. Deadline: Dec. 29, 2006. For a copy of the complete Call for Proposals, send request to jhamlet@niu.edu
