CFP: Small Forms in Nineteenth-Century America

This edited collection expands critical approaches to scale in nineteenth-century America by shifting focus from immensity (Baker 2006; Roberts 2014) to “small forms,” or forms disposed toward brevity or reduction. Building on scholarship that examines the operation of individual forms such as epigraphs (Stokes 2021), extracts (Wisecup 2021), footnotes (Cohen 2022), recipes (Tompkins 2013), and the serial sketch (Spires 2021), this collection aims to synthesize analysis of diverse small forms evident in nineteenth-century American literature and culture.

The history of "rights" as a concept is mired in complications. Regarded as the moral or legal recognition of interests or entitlements of individuals and communities, rights have been present in history in a variety of ways - both justiciable and not. This history of rights, and the securing of rights, is long and arduous, and has taken various forms along the way - with sudden victories and abrupt revocations all the same - resulting in the present that we find ourselves in now.

Editor-in-Chief: Martin Ovens

In addition, the journal offers opportunities to publish research that explores or analyses relations between philosophy, culture and dialogue. In this way Culture and Dialogue provides a forum for scholars in many subfields of philosophical studies.

This is a call for submissions for a guaranteed session in English Literature sponsored by the Renaissance Society of America for the 2026 RSA conference in San Francisco (February 19–21, 2026).

This panel invites papers that explore the themes of toleration and cosmopolitanism in early modern English literature and its transnational connections. Tolerationist and cosmopolitan ideals, while often aspirational, also reveal tensions between universal humanism and local or national allegiances.
