At BARS’ recent Romantic Boundaries conference, a roundtable on publishing in journals revealed there was considerable appetite for an event demystifying monograph publishing in Romantic Studies. In concert with the Keats-Shelley Association of America, BARS has put together a digital roundtable to try and help with this. This roundtable will be chaired by Matthew Sangster (University of Glasgow/BARS) and Kate Singer (Mount Holyoke College/K-SAA) and will feature the following contributors:

  • Rebecca Colesworthy, Senior Acquisitions Editor at SUNY Press
  • Ben Doyle, Publisher for Literary Studies at Bloomsbury (and formerly Emerald and Palgrave)
  • Tim Fulford, co-editor of the Liverpool University Press series Romantic Reconfigurations: Studies in Literature and Culture 1780-1850
  • Patricia A. Matthew, co-editor of Oxford University Press’s Race in Nineteenth-Century Literature and Culture series
  • Bethany Thomas, Commissioning Editor for Literature at Cambridge University Press

The roundtable will begin with short introductions, but the bulk of the time will be committed to answering questions. These can either be asked live or submitted in advance (please email matthew.sangster@glasgow.ac.uk and ksinger@mtholyoke.edu by Monday September 18th so we can pre-circulate to our contributors).

The roundtable will also include details for joining the K-SAA’s new mentoring program, including group and individual monograph advising.
