I welcome abstracts and full essays for a proposed volume on Oscar Wilde's critical essays with an emphasis on how those texts were received in the author's own time and how they have impacted contemporary debates in criticism and theory. I will also consider abstracts that deal with Wilde's fiction, poetry, or drama if they suit the collection's emphasis.
Abstracts should be approximately 500 words long. Please submit abstracts (or full essays) in MS Word or RTF by email attachment (or send inline) to Dr. Alfred J. Drake at ajdrake@ajdrake.com and include in your email's subject heading the phrase "Wilde Collection" along with your name. Please include a CV as a separate attachment, and if you maintain an academic website, you are welcome to include the address. My preference is for work that has not yet been published, but I will consider previously published material. The deadline for abstracts is November 15, 2007. I will confirm receipt promptly.
