Routledge Companion to Working-Class Literature
I am currently soliciting chapters for the Routledge Companion to Working-Class Literature, which is under contract and scheduled to appear next year. Most of the contributors are already confirmed, so I am looking for essays on particular subjects. These include:
• theories of working-class literature
• pre-industrial literature by workers
• working-class literature in the Global South
• African-American, Asian-American, and Latinx working-class literature
• queer working-class literature
• the future of working-class literature and literary studies
A more detailed outline of the project is available on request. Chapters will be 7500 words long and need to be submitted no later than mid-September. Potential contributors should submit a 300 word abstract and a short (100 word or less) bio to b_clarke@uncg.edu by April 1. I would be happy to answer any questions you might have about the volume.
