Subject:      Endorsement Requested, Thank You for your Help

FROM:  Kevin L. Cope
TO:  C18-L Readership and Others

Dear Readers,

Brian McCrea (of the University of Florida) and I are planning to
propose a seminar for the 1994 ASECS meeting.  We would like to
request your (electronic) signature by way of endorsement (for
those of you who might be unfamiliar with ASECS procedures, let me
mention that those who wish to propose seminars are required to
submit approbatory signatures from the membership).  Below you will
find the title and the description of our propsoed seminar.  Beneath
the proposal you will find an electronic reply form.  Please "clip"
it (using whatever program you use for such operations), add your
signature (your name) to it, and send it back to me at my electronic
address, ENCOPE@LSUVM.SNCC.LSU.EDU.  Thank you very much.


ASECS 1994 SEMINAR:  "GENDER IN QUOTATION MARKS:  THE QUESTION OF
FEMALE PLOTS AND TECHNIQUES"
CHAIRS:  KEVIN L. COPE (LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY) and BRIAN MCCREA
(UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA)

     The basis for this session is a little-noted tendency in recent
works by scholar-critics like Patricia Meyer Spacks and Nancy
Armstrong.  A quotation from Spacks's "Afterword" to her recent book,
_Desire and Truth_, sets the issue quite economically:  "To the
'masculine' realm belong self-love, reason, sublimity, art.  Social
sentiment, emotion of all kinds, beauty, and nature associate with the
'feminine' . . . In a crude sense, self-love, reason, and sublimity
can be understood as categories of domination, their 'feminine'
counterparts as emblems of community."  Throughough _Desire and
Truth_, Spacks repeatedly alludes to gender but places her references
in quotation marks.  The reason for this, perhaps, is that she seeks
to forestall obvious objections to her argument, a listing by her
critics of works by male authors in which "social sentiment, emotion
of all kinds, and nature" are valorized.  This session will seek
papers that consider either this recent tendency of leading feminist
critics to put gender in quotation marks, or papers which consider
the notion that there are plots and techniques that are the exclusive
property or discursive domain of females.  Since the early 1970s,
the notion that there are feminine plots has been so widespread as
to seem indisputable.  But does the recent tendency to put gender
in quotation marks open this indisputable truth to debate?


I RECOMMEND THIS PANEL FOR INCLUSION IN THE 1994 ASECS PROGRAM:

In answer to Irwin Primer's note about a US location for Panckoucke's
Encyclopedie methodique: yes, it's the large ency. that followed Diderot
et al.'s [for large: read huge]. If anyone knows of a US location, I'd
be grateful. I checked the usual sources a few years ago (perhaps more
than a few), and couldn't find one. It's a highly important work. I'll
of course have to recheck sources, but someone might remember seeing
a copy someplace. I am grateful to Irwin Primer's message, because it
does indicate that somewhere, there is one in the US!

        For what it's worth: the _Encyclop_edie m_ethodique_ (Paris:
Chez Panckoucke, 1782-1832) is not an exceedingly rare book among North
American libraries.  The Research Libraries Information Network records
copies at: SUNY, Binghamton; Canadian Centre for Architecture, Montreal;
Old Sturbridge Village, Mass.; University of Minnesota; Cornell; Getty
Center, Malibu; University of Pennsylvania; and University of
California, Santa Barbara.  Doubtless there are others.

Subject: Re: "fire a train"?

Kyle: so far as I can tell, the phrase "fire a train" means to light a
bomb by means of a trail (or train) of gunpowder. The term certainly
had currency in the 1790s and I believe that Joseph Priestley wrote
that the Government's refusal to repeal the Test and Corporation Acts
had "lit a train around the House of Commons" the consequences of which
he would not be answerable for. Sorry I don't have the reference handy !
Good luck.

The Lyric Pastoral?

I am writing a paper on Edward Williams' use of the term in his "Poems,
Lyric and Pastoral" (London 1794) - a little-known collection of not
dreadfully exciting poetry in English by this Welsh bard and literary
forger. The way he presents it, it seems that he has invented a new genre.
Is this so? Can you C18ers pick your brains for references to such a genre
elsewhere - both before and after?

        thankyou

Some new files have been added to the gnet directory.  These are
now in the directory global_net at dhvx20.csudh.edu.  These new
files include several of Sy Goodman's columns from the Communications
of the ACM.  Note also that Daniel Pimienta has submitted a paper
in Spanish.

If you do not have ftp access, send a request for help with email
access.

I'd also like to thank Dorothy Fisher, fisher@dhvx20.csudh.edu, who
is helping maintain the directory.

Finally -- I had hoped to see some discussion of these papers from
the readers.  Don't be shy!

I don't know about your library resources, but you should look at
recent books by Clifford A. Pickover, published by St. Martin's
Press, New York. He writes well, presents entertaining and
challenging problems, and gives lots of simple pseudocode from
which you can write your own programs. Titles: Computers, pattern,
chaos, and beauty (1990); Computers and the imagination; visual
adventures beyond the edge (1991); Mazes for the mind; computers
and the unexpected (1992).

Subject:      The Internet (book review)

Friends,

Tracy LaQuey with Jeanne C. Ryer, 1993. The Internet Companion, A
Beginner's Guide to Global Networking. 196 pp. Reading (Mass.): Addison-
Wesley. ISBN 0 201 62224 6. $10.95.

Sooner or later in most discussions of electronic networking in
developing countries, somebody mentions the Internet as a paradigm or a
resource. This small book does not directly address developing-country
issues, but clearly explains the Internet and its relationships to such
systems as BITNET and Compuserve. The authors explain exactly how to use
the Internet, including the services called TELNET and FTP. It tells how
to establish an Internet node. It concludes with an ambitious Resources
chapter that tells how to contact important organizations and data
banks, and what they offer. In other words, the book answers frequently
asked questions and organizes many different kinds of information in a
logical way for persons who are not technical experts. There has been a
need for such a book, and now one is available at very reasonable cost.
I recommend that anyone who uses the Internet regularly should get a
personal copy.

I don't believe that you can TELNET in "full-screen" mode from VM to
your SUN system unless the SUN supports a TN3270 server (very doubtful).

hi,
   I'm new to VM/CMS, so this may be a FAQ or inappropriate
to this group. If either of the cases above occurs, I apologise
sincerely.
   I need to telnet from VM/CMS to a Sun Sparc (SunOS). Is it
possible to get FULL-SCREEN mode, instead the so-called LINE
mode ? If yes, how ?
   Thanks a million for any reply ...

I wonder what has happened? Why don't you receive my letters?
I cannot write you very often now as I spend only two or three

letters a week. Where are they, I don't know.

Tim, first of all I want to report you that Sweta received the
envelope brought by Volgograd bankers. I hope that I'll meet Sweta
this week or maybe she'll pass on my envelope through Lidiya.
And I didn't receive any more letter from you that you sent by mail yet.
I was fond of your silliness (it is the term used by the author)
in the letter where you discribed a hypothetical forest walk. It was
really very nice and rather fun to behave as if we were tenagers
and to engoy each other and even to be friends against Sasha. I think
that I just need such kind of communication, it was as a gulp of fresh
air for me.

This weekend I spent cooking and washing dishes and now I need at
least three days vacations (It's a pity that nobody offers me to have it).
On Saturday a small performance was prepared for parents as Nastya
school by the children. It was devoted to the first aniversary of
the school. Nastya also took place in this concert. Her friend and
she wrote fun verses about their school life and sang them as
"chastushky" (do you remember such kind of Russian folk songs ?).
Maybe their performance was not exellent, but I saw how they engoyed
the process of writing (I think that again it was much more interesting
for them than the result, although it lost any sence without the
final reult - the opportunity to sing for an audience) and I was
pleased to see Nastya at the stage in the folk suit singing and
dancing.
And then Nastya's friends came to our place and it was very
interesting for me to watch them. But it seems to me that they felt
more comfortable staying without my presence, so mainly I stayed at
the kitchen washing dishes and listnening for their games and laught.
I think that Nastya was quite happy and I engoyed this fact.

You write that you can't undertand the politics in this country?
Don't worry, so am I. I'm puzzled to predict what will be the
economy results of the last changes in the supreme power bodies.
I don't trut the new head of the Goverment, I don't aprove the
Congress of our deputates and I don't hope for our President Eltsin,
so you can see that I'm rather pessimistic now. But let's wait and see.

I wanted to take tennis lessons but I found out that there
were not any suitable for me Russian tutor for this, only American
tutor is good for me. And it will be terrible if such wonderful
tallents for tenni as I have won't be developed. What do you think,
maybe I should invite the American tutor to come to Russia to give me
some lessons more? Or maybe I should travel to US for  tennis course?
I need your advise, what to do? Now I must hurry home. Bye, love, kiss,
Elena.
