The University Press of New England/University of New Hampshire announces a
$1000 prize for the best manuscript submitted for its new publishing series,
"Becoming Modern: New Nineteenth-Century Studies." The editors seek lively,
interdisciplinary studies that explore the emergence of modernity in
nineteenth-century North America and Europe. Although projects need not be
international in scope, they should be of interest to scholars on both sides of
the Atlantic. Possible topics range from the rise of the modern city to the
development of the realistic novel, from the medicalization of sexual
orientations to the expansion of consumer culture, from the consolidation of
racial categories to the colonization of subject peoples. Institutions studied
may be as small as the suburban home or as large as the nation-state. For
consideration, send your vita and complete manuscript by APRIL 1, 2000 to
Phyllis Deutsch, Acquisitions Editor; University Press of New England; 23 South
Main St., Hanover, NH 03755-2055, USA. Or, direct inquiries to
<<[log in to unmask]>, (603) 643-7100 x222.
