Founded in 1972, this series welcomes publications that further develop the investigation of German-language literature(s) and culture(s) from a transdisciplinary perspective, covering the period from 1600 onwards. This includes edited volumes and monographs offering state-of-the-art research, as well as new critical editions of primary sources and collections.

Our mission remains to publish high quality research, especially new transdisciplinary approaches to German Studies. Consequently, the series offers a venue for exploring emerging fields of study that intersect with German cultural studies. This may include but is not limited to gender and sexuality studies, critical race and whiteness studies, disability studies, transcultural and postcolonial studies, film, theatre, and comic studies.

All submissions are subject to a double-anonymous peer review process prior to publication.

Authors are cordially invited to submit proposals for manuscripts in either German or English to the publisher at BRILL, Masja Horn.
Please advise our Guidelines for a Book Proposal.
