From Lisa@FemBkNews.com Thu Dec 5 10:41:29 1996 Date: Thu, 5 Dec 1996 09:41:19 -0800 (PST) To: MATFEM@csf.colorado.edu From: Lisa McGowan Subject: Feminist Bookstores' Catalog Over a hundred feminist bookstores across the United States and Canada joined forces to produce The Feminist Bookstores' Catalog, a beautiful 40-page catalog which features 176 books from feminist, independent, university and corporate presses that celebrate women's lives and work. Included in the Catalog is a directory of these feminist bookstores, along with street, e-mail and web addresses (where applicable), as well as phone & fax numbers - a great resource. Feminist bookstores showcase the most exciting books by, about and for women - books about our lives, our changes, and our challenges. We know that having a strong and vibrant literature of women has a tremendous impact on our lives and on our ability to make needed change. We keep women's literature on the national agenda and, unlike our imitators, feminist bookstores celebrate women's lives and literature every day - not just when it's trendy or profitable to do so. We need your support in order to be able to continue to do so. Individual copies of the catalog are available from us for $2.00 (to cover our shipping costs) - just send us a check along with your address. -- Or , better yet, visit your local feminist bookstore and pick up a free copy. (and if you're not sure where the closest feminist bookstore is, visit the Feminist Bookstores Index on the Web at http://www.igc.apc.org/women/bookstores).

The World Congress's title is: PAEDEIA: Philosophy Educating Humanity. In keeping with that theme (and to tweak their noses a little) we've decided to call the IAPh conference: LESSONS FROM THE GYNAECEUM: WOMEN PHILOSOPHIZING--PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE. Papers on all aspects of feminist philosophy are welcome, including historical pieces, discussions of the vast array of current issues in feminist philosophy and theory, and speculative work about the future direfctions philosophy of, by, and about women may take. A 250-500 word abstract of your paper should be sent to one of the Chairs of the two IAPh program committees: Abstracts of papers in German or French should go to Maja-Pellikaan-Engel Wiertdijkje 28, NL - 1861 CE Bergen, The Netherlands. FAX: +31.(0) 72.515 45 29. Abstracts of papers in English or Spanish should go to Linda Lopez McAlister, Department of Women's Studies, HMS 413, University of South Florida, Tampa, FL 33620, USA. FAZ +813 974-0336. Deadline for receipt of abstracts is August 15, 1997. Further information about the symposium, housing, travel, etc. will be forthcoming at a later date. In general: registration fees will be low, dormitory housing will be available. Travel assistance will be availabl for women from countries with non-convertable currencies and possibly others who would find it impossible to attend without assistance. ********************************************* Linda Lopez McAlister, Editor, HYPATIA; Listowner SWIP-L; Chair Dept. of Women's Studies, University of South Florida, Tampa.
