Studies in Twentieth-Century British Literature

This series invites manuscripts on all genres and authors of twentieth-century British literature. The series seeks to provide fresh critical approaches to the established canon as well as new theoretical constructs which serve to expand the canon, including discourse analysis, narratology, film adaptation of a literary work, and imaging (discovering connections between literary and visual representation of reality). Scholars with cross-disciplinary interests are especially encouraged to submit their work. This series invites manuscripts on all genres and authors of twentieth-century British literature.

Race and Resistance Across Borders in the Long Twentieth Century

ISSN: 2297-2552

This series focuses on the history and culture of activists, artists and intellectuals who have worked within and against racially oppressive hierarchies in the twentieth century and beyond, and who have then sought to define and to achieve full equality once those formal hierarchies have been overturned. It explores the ways in which such individuals - writers, scholars, campaigners and organizers, ministers, and artists and performers of all kinds - locate their resistance within a global context and forge connections with each other across national, linguistic, regional and imperial borders. Disseminating the latest interdisciplinary scholarship on the history, literature and culture of anti-racist movements in Africa, the Caribbean, the United States, Europe, Asia and Latin America, the series foregrounds, through a cross-disciplinary approach, the transnational and intercultural nature of these resistance movements. The series embraces a range of themes, including but not limited to antislavery, intellectual and literary networks, emigration and immigration, anti-imperialism, church-based and religious movements, civil rights, citizenship and identity, Black Power, resistance strategies, women's movements, cultural transfer, white supremacy and anti-immigration, hip hop and global justice movements. The series originated in the Race and Resistance Research Programme at The Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities (TORCH), University of Oxford. Proposals are invited for sole- and joint-authored monographs as well as edited collections. We welcome projects in a wide range of fields, including but not restricted to history, political science, anthropology, literature, cultural studies and media studies.

Exiles and Transterrados

ISSN: 2297-9263

Philosopher José Gaos coined the neologism transterrado to describe his life as an exile in Mexico. This series investigates the experience of Spanish Civil War exiles and explores the various and complex connections between their work and the cultural products of the countries where they spent their exile, from the 1930s to the 1970s. The series is open to interdisciplinary approaches in a wide range of fields from literature and philosophy to history, cultural studies and art history. We will also consider critical editions of the lost or unpublished works of exiled writers. The series publishes in English and Spanish. El filósofo José Gaos acuñó el neologismo transterrado para describir su vida como exiliado en México: esta serie se enfoca, principalmente, en el exilio resultante de la Guerra Civil española y sus variadas y complejas conexiones con la producción cultural de los países en los que transcurría ese exilio, de 1936–1939 a 1975, al menos. La experiencia española es un caso particular, por la magnitud de la población desterrada y por la duración del destierro, de una situación que marca la historia del siglo veinte: la serie está abierta a perspectivas interdisciplinarias sobre el exilio en un amplio abanico que abarca desde literatura y filosofía hasta historia, desde estudios culturales hasta el arte y la historia del arte. La colección también contempla propuestas de edición, con introducciones críticas, de obras perdidas o inéditas de los escritores exiliados. La serie se publica en inglés y en español.
