ECCB Seeks Slavic Bibliographers and Book Review Editors

ECCB:  The Eighteenth-Century Current Bibliography is seeking one "sub-field editors" to manage the Slavic "literatures and languages" areas of our annual bibliographical and review publication.  We would like to find colleagues who could
(i) assemble an annual list of current publications in the aforementioned specialty areas and
(ii) arrange for a reasonable number of book or essay reviews.

The ideal candidate would do one area him/herself (such as Russian, Polish, or Croatian or ...) and recruit colleagues and/or graduate students to do other areas, if possible. We are striving to be more inclusive of Slavic literatures and languages, not to do the perfect bibliography. Please contribute. Even one or two book review a year will be so much better than the current O.

ECCB editors are assisted in their assignments by bibliographical software ("endnote") provided by the publisher.  They receive title- or colophon-page in each annual volume and are included in editorial and press events that occur at eighteenth-century conferences around the country.  An offering of the AMS Press of New York, a leader in the publishing of long-eighteenth-century studies, ECCB is received at prestigious academic and research libraries and facilities throughout the world.  It has been in publication for nearly eighty years and is the subject of a web site at <http://eccb.net/>http://eccb.net.  Any colleague who might be interested in either of the aforementioned positions should make contact with ECCB Foreign Languages Field Editor Waltraud Maierhofer at <mailto:waltraud-maierhofer@uiowa.edu>waltraud-maierhofer@uiowa.edu or with ECCB Co-General Editor Kevin L. Cope at <mailto:ENCOPE@LSU.EDU>ENCOPE@LSU.EDU.
