Peter Lang Oxford is pleased to announce the launch of the new book series
World Science Fiction Studies
Series Editor: Professor Sonja Fritzsche, Illinois Wesleyan University
http://peterlangoxford.wordpress.com/2014/05/02/new-series-world-science-fiction-studies/
The book series World Science Fiction Studies understands science fiction to be a global phenomenon and explores the various manifestations of the genre in cultures around the world.
It recognizes the importance of Anglo-American contributions to the field but promotes the critical study of science fiction in other national traditions, particularly German-speaking. It also supports the investigation of
transnational discourses that have shaped the science fiction tradition since its inception. The scope of the series is not limited to one particular medium and encourages study of the genre in both print and digital forms (e.g. literature, film, television,
transmedial). Theoretical approaches (e.g. post-human, gender, genre theory) and genre studies (e.g. film shorts, transgenre such as science fiction comedy) with a focus beyond the Anglo-American tradition are also welcome.
Proposals for monographs and edited collections in either English or German are invited. For more information, please contact Dr Laurel Plapp, Commissioning Editor, Peter Lang Ltd, 52 St Giles, Oxford OX1 3LU,
