Medieval Interventions

ISSN: 2376-2683

Medieval Interventions publishes innovative studies on medieval culture broadly conceived. By «innovative», we envisage works espousing, for example, new research protocols especially those involving digitized resources, revisionist approaches to codicology and paleography, reflections on medieval ideologies, fresh pedagogical practices, digital humanities, advances in gender studies, as well as fresh thinking on animal, environmental, geospatial, and nature studies. In short, the series will seek to set rather than follow agendas in the study of medieval culture. Since medieval intellectual and artistic practices were naturally interdisciplinary, the series welcomes studies from across the humanities and social sciences. Recognizing also the vigor that marks the field worldwide, the series endeavors to publish work in translation from non-Anglophone medievalists.

Dramaturgies

ISSN: 1376-3199

This series presents innovative research work in the dramaturgies of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Its main purpose is to re-assess the complex relationship between textual studies, cultural and/or performance aspects at the dawn of this new multicultural millennium. The series offers discussions of the link between drama and multiculturalism (studies of “minority” playwrights –– ethnic, Aboriginal, gay, and lesbian), reconsiderations of established playwrights in the light of contemporary critical theories, studies of the interface between theatre practice and textual analysis, studies of marginalized theatrical practices (circus, vaudeville, etc.), explorations of emerging postcolonial drama, research into new modes of dramatic expressions and comparative or theoretical drama studies. Cette série présente des travaux de recherche innovateurs dans le domaine de la dramaturgie des XXe et XXIe siècles. Son objectif essentiel est de ré-examiner la relation complexe entre études de textes, aspects culturels et/ou performatifs à l’aube d’un millénaire multiculturel. La collection offre des analyses du lien entre textes dramatiques et multiculturalisme (études de dramaturges issus de « minorités » diverses, ethniques, aborigènes et sexuelles), de nouvelles approches de dramaturges confirmés à la lumière des théories critiques contemporaines, des études de l’interface entre pratique théâtrale et analyse textuelle, des études de formes théâtrales marginales (cirque, vaudeville, etc.), des monographies relatives au théâtre postcolonial ainsi qu’aux nouveaux modes d’expression dramatique. Elle aborde également le domaine du théâtre comparé et de la théorie théâtrale.

Middle and Early Modern English Texts

ISSN: 2235-0136

This series is conceived to facilitate the edition of unpublished scientific treatises written in Late Middle English (late 13th century to the very early 16th century) as well as the publication of monographs dealing with their transmission, palaeographical and dialectal features, and/or their lexical, syntactic and pragmatic characteristics. The second aspect of the series seeks to favour studies specializing in linguistic variation or any of the multi-faceted aspects of the Middle English language even from a diachronic perspective. The Late Middle English Texts series is directed towards a wide scholarly readership that includes Textual Edition, Textual Criticism and Transmission – especially on electronic and digital formats both as standalone and online –, Ecdotics, History of Science, History of the English Language and Linguistics, Late Medieval Studies, History of Cultural Artifacts and Librarianship. The chronological scope we contemplate will range approximately from the mid 1200's to the early 1500's, and will include both manuscripts, incunabula and early prints that have come down to us in English, with the occasional excursion into analogues in other languages. Editions will include codicological and language studies that will enhance the relevance of the text within the cultural transmission European framework. The series includes both scholarly and academic editions and monograph studies with a specialised and comprehensive focus. Thematic and teaching textual anthologies will also be considered for the series. We do not aim primarily at publishing collected papers from conferences, symposia, meetings and other scholarly reunions, unless the occasion had a very relevant topic and was strongly coherent and specialised in its discussions. Each publication is subject to a rigorous blind double peer-review system that involves at least five readers from five different institutions (Universities or Research Institutes).

Genèses de Textes / Textgenesen

ISSN: 2235-6797

Les annales intitulées Genèses de Textes ont été fondées dans le cadre d’un projet de recherche primé par l’ANR (Agence Nationale de la Recherche), portant sur l’étude des processus mémoriels et textuels dans les textes hermétiques après 1945, en particulier chez Erich Arendt, Paul Celan et Ernst Meister. Ces annales renseignent par là à intervalles réguliers sur les travaux du groupe international ainsi constitué . Les réflexions dont elles se font l’écho touchent toutefois également une problématique et un corpus plus larges incluant une réflexion sur les processus culturels et littéraires aux 20e et 21e siècles. Genèses de Textes présente régulièrement un ensemble d’articles regroupés autour d’un thème ou d’une problématique spécifique ainsi qu’éventuellement un ou deux articles non thématiques, un cahier d’informations sur les activités du groupe de chercheurs regroupés autour de l’édition d’Ernst Meister, ainsi que des traductions et comptes rendus d’ouvrage. Etudiant essentiellement des phénomènes liés à la transitivité de la culture, ces annales se considèrent également comme transitoires – elles accueillent souvent des travaux qui sont en même temps conçus comme des modèles d’études destinés à être perfectionnés. Elles publient des articles en langue allemande, française et anglaise. Das Jahrbuch Textgenesen ist im Rahmen eines von der ANR (Agence Nationale de la Recherche) geförderten Projekts über Gedächtnis- und Textprozesse in hermetischen Texten nach 1945 entstanden; untersucht werden in diesem Rahmen vor allem Texte von Erich Arendt, Paul Celan und Ernst Meister und das Jahrbuch berichtet in regelmäßigen Abständen über die Arbeiten des internationalen Forscherteams, das sich aus diesem Anlass konstituiert hat. Die im Jahrbuch wiedergegebenen Überlegungen beziehen sich jedoch auch auf eine weiter gefasste Problematik und ein breiteres Korpus und schließen eine Reflexion über Kultur- und Literaturprozesse im 20. und 21. Jahrhundert mit ein. Es wird regelmäßig ein Themenheft publiziert, das aber auch ein bis zwei nicht thematisch gebundene Aufsätze enthalten kann, sowie einen Beitrag über die vom Team der Ernst-Meister-Ausgabe geleistete Arbeit, Übersetzungen und Rezensionen. Da das Jahrbuch im Wesentlichen Phänomene kultureller Übertragung behandelt, versteht es sich ebenfalls als Ort des Übergangs: Es nimmt gerne Arbeiten auf, die Modellentwürfe darstellen und zur weiteren Ausarbeitung gedacht sind. Aufsätze in deutscher, französischer und englischer Sprache werden aufgenommen.

Extreme teaching: rigorous texts for troubled times

ISSN: 1534-2808

Books in this series will provide practical ideas on classroom practice for teachers and teacher educators that are grounded in a profound understanding of the social, cultural, political, economic, historical, philosophical, and psychological contexts of education as well as in a keen sense of educational purpose. Within these contextual concerns contributors will address the ferment, uncertainty, and confusion that characterize the Troubles of contemporary education. The series will focus specifically on the act of teaching. While the topics addressed may vary, EXtreme Teaching is ultimately a book series that addresses new, rigorous, and contextually informed modes of classroom practice. Authors will bring together a commitment to educational and social justice with a profound understanding of a rearticulation of what constitutes compelling scholarship. The series is based on the insight that the future of progressive educational reform rests at the intersection of socio-educational justice and scholarly rigor. Authors will present their conceptions of this rigorous new pedagogical frontier in an accessible manner that avoids the esoteric language of an "in group." In this context, the series editors will make use of their pedagogical expertise to introduce pedagogical ideas to student, teacher, and professional audiences. In this process, they will explain what they consider the basic concepts of a field of study, developing their own interpretive insights about the domain and how it should develop in the future. Very few progressive texts exist to introduce individuals to rigorous and complex conceptions of pedagogical practice: thus, authors will be expected to use their contextualized interpretive imaginations to introduce readers to a creative and 'Progressive view of pedagogy in the field being analyzed.
