Spanish Golden Age Studies

ISSN: 2297-5225

This series publishes titles on the Golden Age, including but not limited to studies on the New World, the imperial wars, internal strife, visual arts, the popular theatre and prose fiction. Our remit is to provide an outlet for new socio-historical and cultural research on the Early-Modern period, a time when Spain could for the first and last time lay claim to being the world’s leading military, economic and political power. The series is particularly interested in reflections on how cultural production both reflected and shaped the age that ostensibly brought it forth. We welcome both monographs and edited collections in English or Spanish.

World Science Fiction Studies

ISSN: 2296-8814

World Science Fiction Studies understands science fiction to be an inherently global phenomenon. Proposals are invited for monographs and edited collections that celebrate the tremendous reach of a genre that continues to be interpreted and transformed by a variety of cultures and linguistic communities around the world. The series embraces this global vision of the genre but also supports the articulation of each community’s unique approach to the challenges of science, technology and society. The series encourages the use of contemporary theoretical approaches (e.g. postcolonialism, posthumanism, feminisms, ecocriticism) as well as engagement with positionalities understood through critical race and ethnicity studies, gender studies, queer theory, disability studies, class analysis, and beyond. Interdisciplinary work and research on any media (e.g. print, film, television, visual arts, video games, new media) is welcome. The language of the series is English. Advisory Board: Jinyi Chu (Yale University), Antonio Cordoba (Manhattan College), Elizabeth Ginway (University of Florida), Hugh O’Connell (University of Massachusetts, Boston), Iva Polak (University of Zagreb), Umberto Rossi (Sapienza University of Rome), Alfredo Luiz Suppia (University of Campinas), Ida Yoshinaga (Georgia Institute of Technology).
