The Journal of Folklore and Education, an open-access journal, is seeking submissions for an upcoming special themed issue on “Death, Loss, and Remembrance Across Cultures: A Role for Folklore in Education.” The editors welcome submissions for this issue that take up ideas related to death, loss, remembrance, as well as related topics such as absence, grief, commemoration, reparation, and healing within cultural, social, and personal contexts. Pieces should aim to stimulate thinking for K-12 educators, college and university educators, museum educators, and/or community and arts-based educators. The editors welcome submissions of any length, although most published pieces are in the 2000-4500 word range. A range of media can be supported, including photographic, digital, video, and print-based media, as well as traditional written essays and articles. We aim to include pieces that address and face a number of possibilities, including family traditions, community memorials, death and dying in culture, loss in the wake of disasters and tragedies, and instances of remembering, forgetting, witnessing, and haunting. For more information, please contact co-editors Dr. Mark Helmsing mhelmsin at gmu.edu<mailto:mhelmsin at gmu.edu> and Dr. Bretton Varga bvarga at csuchico.edu<mailto:bvarga at csuchico.edu>. The original deadline of April 1 has been extended to June 1 and we are happy to discuss potential ideas with authors who wish to develop an idea for a submission.
