Brief Description
Palgrave Studies in Queer Literary, Visual and Material Cultures tests, contests and expands the boundaries of queer studies in global and transnational contexts and across historical periods. The series engages a wide range of cultural production including literature, graphic narrative, film, performance, architecture, art, virtual design, interior and furniture design, and landscape design. We welcome titles that bring “queer” cultures and sexualities into conversation with related areas of enquiry, especially critical race theory, trans studies, disability studies, feminist theory, eco-criticism, post-colonial theory, and Marxist theory. The series is dedicated to cross-cultural, interdisciplinary and intersectional work across many forms of difference and diversity.
Although the series will focus on Anglophone works we invite research that crosses over from other disciplines and cultural contexts. For example, a book on late Victorian British queer male writers might discuss the influence of the French decadent writers of that period, as well as other aspects of European literary production. Or, again, work that explores British visual and textual cultures from India might usefully contextualise them in relation to subcontinental practices and understandings of sexuality and art.
The editors welcome new book proposals for monographs (70,000-100,000 words) and edited collections (80,000-125,000 words).
