Bulletin of Contemporary Hispanic Studies announced by Liverpool University Press
The Department of Modern Languages and Cultures has announced the forthcoming publication of the Bulletin of Contemporary Hispanic Studies, the first issue of which will come out in 2019.
The Bulletin of Contemporary Hispanic Studies, published by Liverpool University Press, builds on the long-standing success of the Bulletin of Hispanic Studies (founded by Edgar Allison Peers in 1923), and it will focus on contemporary scholarship across all areas of the Hispanic world (literature, linguistics, cultural history, film and visual arts, cultural and gender studies, or on any aspects of contemporary Hispanic Studies, covering the linguistic areas of Spanish, Portuguese, Galician, Catalan, Basque and any of the Amerindian languages).
The Bulletin of Contemporary Hispanic Studies, edited by Dr Diana Cullell (Senior Lecturer in Hispanic Studies in the Department of Modern Languages and Cultures), will be supported by an editorial committee bringing recognised research expertise across a wide range of contemporary Hispanic scholarship. This publication is another example of the Department's commitment to academic publishing and research, making sure the Departments brings it closer to the student community as well as the experts in the discipline.
Anthony Cond, Director of Liverpool University Press said:
The Bulletin of Contemporary Hispanic Studies is the latest in a long line of publications from LUP that have served the wider fields of Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies. Built on the strong foundation of the Bulletin of Hispanic Studies, and published alongside LUP’s Contemporary Hispanic and Lusophone Cultures book series, BCHS will be a major venue for the highest quality research in contemporary Hispanic Studies.
Diana Cullell, General Editor commented:
The Bulletin of Contemporary Hispanic Studies aims to build on the success of the Bulletin of Hispanic Studies, offering a new vision for the future of the discipline. The BCHS will open up new avenues and publish the latest scholarship in Hispanic Studies. I am genuinely excited to be leading this new venture, and we warmly welcome submissions for our future issues.
