We are especially interested in papers examining transnational or oceanic intersections of literatures and cultures, as well as papers on Aboriginal, Māori, or other Indigenous topics.

Scholarship of the works of Robert E. Howard often focuses on the author’s original stories printed in pulp magazines. These works helped to form the foundation of the sword and sorcery genre, and established Howard as a masterful fantasist. However, the Hyborian Age continues to thrive through Howardian works which are only beginning to find a purchase in academia. I am excited to announce a project to bring together scholars to discuss contemporary media that adapts or was inspired by the works of Robert E. Howard. 

The Victorians Institute Journal is still accepting submissions for Volume 52, which will be published later this year. We accept manuscripts between 7k-9k words on any aspect of Victorian and Edwardian literature, art, and culture.
