Subject: File: "FEMINISTSF LOG0207C" ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 21 Jul 2002 15:55:48 +0200 Reply-To: p.mayerhofer@web.de Sender: "friendly discussion of feminist SF, fantastic & utopian literature and other media" From: Petra Mayerhofer Subject: BDG Schedule Reminder Comments: To: feministsf-lit@uic.edu, feministsf@uic.edu MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit The upcoming discussions within the BDG on the feministsf-lit list are August 5 -- The Fifth Sacred Thing, by Starhawk September 2 -- The Annunciate, by Severna Park October 7 -- The Books of Great Alta, by Jane Yolen _The Books of Great Alta_ consists of _Sister Light, Sister Dark_ (originally published in 1988) and the sequel _White Jenna_ (1989). The current BDG discussion is on _He, She, and It_ (= Body of Glass) by Marge Piercy. The next selection round for the BDG will be probably in September. Info for the newcomers: The BDG is one (and only one) feature of the feministsf-lit. It's purpose is to focus discussion on a particular book at a particular time. Every four months four books are selected to be discussed within the next BDG round. Other books can be discussed in parallel to the BDG, of course, and past and future BDG books can be discussed at any time on the list. The difference to a 'normal' list discussion is that in BDG messages spoilers (for the BDG book under discussion) have not to be pointed out (the 'BDG' in the subject line is the actual spoiler warning). Further info on the BDG you can find at the BDG website http://www.geocities.com/bdg_volunteers/ Petra -- Petra Mayerhofer p.mayerhofer@web.de -------------------------------------------------- This is the FEMINISTSF listserve, intended only for discussion of feminism and Speculative Fiction.
