We are hoping to establish a database of international scholars working on any aspect of Queer in Europe. Within this designation, we include:

*Theoretical concerns, especially the reception and development of Anglo-American Queer Theory in Europe.

*LGBT community and minority rights issues in different countries of Europe, including Eastern Europe.

*Analysis of queer in cultural representations (writing, art, film etc) in different European contexts.

Expressions of interest should be addressed to:

Lisa Downing (L.M.Downing[at]exeter.ac.uk) and Robert
Gillett (r.m.gillett[at]qmul.ac.uk)

Best wishes,
Lisa Downing
