inviting book proposals for monographs and edited volumes

Dear colleagues,

I’m pleased to let you know that Camden House is relaunching its book series “European Studies in North American Literature and Culture” and invites proposals for monographs and edited volumes from authors at any academic career stage. If you are looking for a quality publisher for your book project, please get in touch with me any time, and please spread the word especially to the doctoral students and post-docs who may not be on this mailing list.

Founded in 1996, the series presents European perspectives on the literatures and cultures of the United States and Canada. Open to any genre and period, it covers a broad variety of theoretical and methodological approaches to literature within the larger frameworks of cultural studies and media studies. It is also interested in intersections between disciplines. The scope ranges from single-author studies to thematic volumes or (trans)national literary histories. The envisioned audience of these intellectually rigorous yet reader-friendly and accessible books is made up of scholars and students in literary and cultural studies as well as the informed general reader. We invite proposals for monographs and edited volumes. Camden House offers close editorial contact, fast processing of your proposal, cover design and proper copyediting done by professional human beings, quality books and e-books, and a strong distribution and marketing network focusing on North America and Europe. Full manuscripts are subject to a double-blind peer review process.
