Approaches to Contemporary American Literature
General Editors:
Aliki Varvogli (University of Dundee, UK)
Chris Gair (University of Birmingham, UK)
The editors invite proposals for e-book monographs to be included in a new series of approaches to American literature since 1970.
We seek typescripts and proposals for books in any of the following (or similar) areas:
- Genre or theme-based studies of contemporary American writing (e.g. immigration and/or emigration narratives, new journalism, neo-slave narratives, travel writing, the short story, crime fiction, science fiction and fantasy writing)
- Theoretical studies of contemporary American literature (e.g. approaches based on gender studies, circum-Atlanticism, environmentalism, postmodernism, race, ethnicity, class)
- Critical studies of significant novelists, poets, dramatists, and other artists in relation to contemporary American culture
Each series of Humanities-Ebooks monographs will make a contribution to scholarship in a particular field of research, as defined by the General Editor(s), and will be edited to the highest standards. It will be the aim of the publisher and of the editors jointly to ensure that the monographs achieve a standing equivalent to the products of conventional publishing houses, while offering considerable advantages in terms of affordability, availability, searchability, portability and protection of rights, while affording protection of intellectual property.
