New Perspectives in Edward Albee Studies – Edward Albee Abroad

New Perspectives in Edward Albee Studies (published by Brill) is currently seeking proposals and/or essays for Volume #5.

Volume #5: Edward Albee: Abroad

Esther Marinho Santana and Valentine Vasak, co-Editors

We are seeking essays that explore Albee’s work, influence, and reach abroad (i.e., outside of the American theatre). We encourage submissions from graduate students as well as established scholars or theatre professionals from any approach (e.g., theatre history, performance studies, literary theory and criticism), as well as those who have worked with Mr. Albee in any of the above activities.

Please contact both the Series Editor, Michael Y. Bennett (email: bennettm@uww.edu) and Volume #5 co-Editors, Esther Marinho Santana (email: esther.mrst@gmail.com) and Valentine Vasak (email: valentine.vasak@gmail.com) for queries, proposals, and/or submissions.  For submission guidelines, please see the general instructions below.

Deadline of submission for completed manuscripts: November 15, 2020.

To submit an essay for a particular volume, please email your double-spaced article as an MS Word attachment. While the journal prefers articles to be 6,000-9,000 words in length, articles between 4,000-12,000 words will be considered. Articles should be written according to The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th Edition (with footnotes instead of in-text citations and also with a Bibliography). Simultaneous submissions are not accepted. Please email your submissions and/or proposals to the Volume Editor and/or the Series Editor. As essays undergo a double-blind review, please make sure your essay does not include any self-identifying information. Inquiries regarding review-essays (which can be as extensive as 20,000 words) or interviews (which can be extensive, as well) should also be sent to the co-Editors and/or the Series Editor.
