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.

Historical Sociolinguistics

The interdisciplinary field of Historical Sociolinguistics seeks to reveal the impact of language development on society and the role of individuals and society in the changing forms and usage of language. This book series is aimed at sociolinguists and social historians who are keen to publish studies on the social history of languages, the interaction of linguistic practices and society, and the sociological significance of linguistic variation with a historical dimension. The purpose of the series is to provide empirically supported studies that will challenge and advance current language historiographies, which often continue to present the history of particular languages as necessarily leading to the creation of a standard or prestige variety. Of particular interest are topics such as the following: language myths and language ideology, historical multilingualism and the formation of nation-states, the sociolinguistics of minority and regional languages, the rise of urban vernaculars, immigrants and their languages, the role of prescriptive grammarians, and the social history of pidgins and creoles. Book proposals from historians and linguists working on any language in any period are welcome, in particular those that include a comparative dimension as well as those with a strong empirical foundation. The language of publication is primarily English, though other languages may be considered. The editors guarantee that all publications in this series have been submitted to external and anonymous peer review. The four series editors and twenty-six members of the advisory board are all members of the Historical Sociolinguistics Network (HiSoN). Advisory Board: Anita Auer (Lausanne), Wendy Ayres-Bennett (Cambridge), Andrea Cuomo (Ghent), Steffan Davies (Bristol), Ana Deumert (Cape Town), José del Valle (CUNY), Martin Durrell (Manchester), Jan Fellerer (Oxford), Elin Fredsted (Flensburg), Róisín Healy (Galway), Juan Hernandez-Campoy (Murcia), Kristine Horner (Sheffield), Ernst Håkon Jahr (Agder), Mark Richard Lauersdorf (Kentucky), Anthony Lodge (St Andrews), Nicola McLelland (Nottingham), Miriam Meyerhoff (Oxford), Agnete Nesse (Bergen), Terttu Nevalainen (Helsinki), Taru Nordlund (Helsinki), Gijsbert Rutten (Leiden), Joachim Scharloth (Waseda Tokyo), Peter Trudgill (Fribourg), Marijke van der Wal (Leiden), Rik Vosters (Vrije Universiteit Brussel), Laura Wright (Cambridge)

Immigration from Europe to North America

Although human beings have been migrating across the globe for millennia, mass migration to North America has occurred only in the last 200 years. Whether they came to farm the land, to practice their crafts, or to find work in newly-emerging industries, over 50 000 000 immigrants crossed the Atlantic Ocean in the last two centuries to begin a new life in the «New World». This series presents examples of the latest scholarship on mass migration from Europe to North America. It welcomes comparative studies of immigrants who went to either Canada or the United States, or both. It also features interdisciplinary studies, biographies, collected essays, and conference papers related to immigration to North America.

Transatlantic Studies in British and North American Culture

ISSN: 2364-2882

The interdisciplinary series Transatlantic Studies in British and North American Culture brings together literary and cultural studies concerning literatures and cultures of the English-speaking world, particularly those of Great Britain, Ireland, the United States, and Canada. The range of topics to be addressed includes literature, theater, film, and art, considered in various twenty-first-century theoretical perspectives, such as, for example (but not exclusively), New Historicism and canon formation, cognitive narratology, gender and queer studies, performance studies, memory and trauma studies, and New Art History. The editors welcome Ph.D. dissertations and Habilitation projects, as long as they constitute valuable and original contributions to the above fields. We are leaving a broad margin for the innovative and the unpredictable, hoping to attract authors whose approaches will point to new directions of research as regards both thematic areas and methods. Comparative Polish-Anglo-American proposals will be considered, too. Authors are welcome to submit manuscripts of monographs, collected volumes, post-conference volumes as well as dissertations. The series was formerly known as Gdańsk Transatlantic Studies in British and North American Culture.

North American Studies in Nineteenth-Century German Literature and Culture

ISSN: 2235-3496

"This series of scholarly works focuses on literature and other cultural artifacts produced during the long nineteenth century in German-speaking lands. The series includes studies in criticism and literary history, as well as analyses of the social and political dimensions of literature and culture. The aim of the series is to offer contributions by North American scholars who have rediscovered once significant authors, genres or modes of production and consumption; reevaluated canonical or other texts and their contexts; or explored other forms of expression, such as journalism, letters or diaries. This scholarship serves to renew our understanding and appreciation of a body of work that was acknowledged as internationally important in the nineteenth century and that still speaks to us today."
