Call for Book Chapters
on Fans, Fandoms, and Tabletop Roleplaying Games

Deadline for submissions: Sunday, June 15, 2025

Adrianna Burton, University of California – Irvine

We are seeking proposals for chapters to be included in a peer-reviewed edited collection on fans, fandom(s), and tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs). The University of Michigan Press has expressed interest in this collection and the book proposal is currently underway. 

Drawing on the theme “Underground,” this proposed panel considers the hidden, unearthed role of nineteenth-century forms of education. We think of education broadly here, including textbooks, expositions, World’s Fairs, newspapers, public history, and other print and material culture with didactic purpose. The panel will consider how these forms of education challenge or uphold prevailing nineteenth-century historiographies, as well as how they engage with counternarratives, reveal buried histories, reshape public memory, or critically construct belonging.
