This book series supports the
work of the Centre for the Study of Contemporary Women’s Writing at the
Institute of Germanic & Romance Studies, University of London, by
publishing high-quality critical studies of contemporary literature by women.
The main focus of the series is literatures written in the languages covered by
the Centre – French, German, Italian, Portuguese and the Hispanic
languages – but studies of women’s writing in English and other
languages are also welcome. ‘Contemporary’ includes literature
published after 1968, with a preference for studies of post-1990 texts in any
literary genre.
Studies in Contemporary
Women’s Writing provides a forum
for innovative research that explores new trends and issues, showcasing work
that makes a stimulating case for studies of new or hitherto neglected authors
and texts as well as established authors. Connections are encouraged between
literature and the social and political contexts in which it is created and
those which have an impact on women’s lives and experiences. The goal of
the series is to facilitate stimulating comparisons across authors and texts,
theories and aesthetics, and cultural and geographical contexts, in this rich
field of study.
Proposals are invited for either
monographs or edited volumes. The series welcomes single-author studies,
thematic analyses and cross-cultural discussions as well as a variety of
approaches and theoretical frameworks. Manuscripts should be written in
English.
