There's still time
If you want to submit a proposal for the 2006 Wesleyan Theological Society, you have until September 1. Despite being a world-renowned Derrida translator whose translation may one day be published, I have not gone the obvious route -- no, I have decided to write a paper comparing the perspectives on hospitality found in New Testament traditions, in Clement of Alexandria ("Who is the rich man who shall be saved?"), and in John Wesley (primarily "On Riches").I would likely add a section on Derrida before trying to get it published (somewhere other than the WTS's journal). I can't decide whether that would make it more attractive to journals or unpublishable. I guess it depends on the journal. I still haven't followed my advisor's advice to sit down in the bowels of the Regenstein and survey a few issues of every journal that seems relevant to my work, to see what would fit best where. That day will surely come. Surely.
