IGRS Modern Language Publications Series
Call for proposals
Proposals are invited for a new book series in Modern
Languages (French, German, Italian, Portuguese,
Spanish and comparative studies) published by the
Institute of Germanic & Romance Studies, University of
London (see http://igrs.sas.ac.uk ). In addition to
the IGRS’s own staff, who form the Editorial
Committee, a Peer Review Committee of 36 senior
academics in the field will select two proposals per
year to be published in the series. Complete texts of
the selected books must be submitted to the IGRS in
camera-ready copy, according to a template supplied by
IGRS, and authors will be asked to contribute a
subvention of £200 on submission. The expectation is
that authors will supply the full text approximately
one year after acceptance of the proposal. Books may
be of any length between 30,000 and 100,000 words, and
may be either monographs or academic collections.
Fiction and translations will not be considered.
Please submit your proposal to Prof Naomi Segal,
Director of the IGRS, via email to
