Criminal Humanities & Forensic Semiotics

This series publishes monographs, anthologies, annotated literary editions, and comparative studies that critically engage the humanities as a locus for the study of criminal offending, criminal investigation, deviance, penology, and deterrence, as well as the epistemology of justice. We are especially interested in submissions with a strong interdisciplinary orientation and which lie at the crossroads of theory and practice. In other words, this series is foremost concerned with using artistic, literary, and multimedia texts, situations, and other products of the strictly non-investigative world as vehicles for exploring long-standing social and procedural issues of interest to both academia and the general public. By engaging a wide readership encompassing both scholars and practitioners, it is the intent of this series to breathe new life into the humanities and cultural studies, not to further alienate or obfuscate the scholarship done in these disciplines. For this reason, collaborations between authors representing academic institutions and those working in both private and public knowledge sectors, including government and specialized areas of law enforcement, are encouraged to collaborate with respect to this project. The series will publish studies and anthologies that explore the connection between fictional writing, movies, music, traditional electronic media, the Internet, and other domains of popular culture and how they have influenced the perception of crime and criminality. The synergy that exists between real crime (reality) and imagined criminality as manifesting itself through representations in writing and media is the primary focus of the series. We also welcome submissions that draw on any number of semiotic, linguistic, and comparative literature traditions, particularly those espousing new approaches to these fields and which allow key concepts to be unpacked within the framework of the criminal justice system, the forensic sciences, or other professions or institutions that serve the public interest.

Trans-Atlántico / Trans-Atlantique

ISSN: 2033-6861

La collection «Trans-Atlántico / Trans-Atlantique» accueille des travaux de recherche portant sur les migrations, les interactions et les échanges qui, depuis plus de cinq siècles, façonnent de manière plurielle les cultures des deux rives de l’Atlantique. En résonance avec le roman éponyme de Witold Gombrowicz, dont le titre inclut le trait d’union, cette collection se positionne comme un espace scientifique dédié à l’approfondissement d’une approche transculturelle des phénomènes étudiés. Elle offre un cadre privilégié pour l’analyse des dynamiques de dialogue et de confrontation entre les deux rives de l'Atlantique, tout en favorisant l’émergence de pratiques théoriques et créatives susceptibles d’interroger et de reconfigurer les paradigmes établis dans le domaine des études transculturelles. * * * La colección «Trans-Atlántico / Trans-Atlantique» reúne trabajos de investigación sobre las migraciones, interacciones e intercambios que, durante más de cinco siglos, han influido de manera plural en las culturas de ambas orillas del Atlántico. En resonancia con la novela homónima de Witold Gombrowicz, cuyo título incluye el guión, esta colección se posiciona como un espacio científico dedicado a profundizar en un enfoque transcultural de los fenómenos estudiados. Proporciona un marco privilegiado para analizar las dinámicas de diálogo y confrontación entre las dos orillas del Atlántico, al tiempo que favorece el surgimiento de prácticas teóricas y creativas que permiten cuestionar y reconfigurar los paradigmas establecidos en el campo de los estudios transculturales. * * * The Series «Trans-Atlántico / Trans-Atlantique» gathers research on migrations, interactions, and exchanges that, over more than five centuries, have shaped the cultures on both sides of the Atlantic in diverse ways. Echoing the eponymous novel by Witold Gombrowicz, whose title includes the hyphen, the collection positions itself as an academic platform for advancing a transcultural approach to the phenomena under investigation. It provides a structured framework for analyzing the dynamics of dialogue and confrontation between the two shores of the Atlantic, while fostering the development of theoretical and creative practices aimed at questioning and reconfiguring established paradigms within the field of transcultural studies.
