ROCHESTER STUDIES IN CENTRAL EUROPE

The University of Rochester Press is accepting manuscripts for its series entitled Rochester Studies in Central Europe.

Professor Timothy Snyder, Professor of History at Yale University, is series editor, and is assisted by a panel of scholars from a variety of institutions. The editorial board seeks titles and formats ranging from monographs to edited volumes representing myriad points of view.

The series currently includes contemporary and historical works in the social sciences and culture relating to all areas of Central Europe (i.e., the European part of the former Soviet Empire, including the western Soviet Republics), Central European diasporas, and the eastern borderland of the European Union. We seek manuscripts pertaining to comparative politics, history, religion, film and media, urban and gender studies. We will consider historical memoir and works in translation where the English language rights have been secured.

To submit an appropriate project for consideration, please send a formal proposal or prospectus. The proposal should include: 1) a brief but detailed synopsis of the work, outlining its intended contribution to the existing literature; 2) an abstract of 300 words or less, summarizing the work’s content; 3) a complete table of contents and one or two sample chapters; 4) an updated CV. All scholars with an interest in submitting their work for consideration should contact the series editor or URP editorial director Suzanne E. Guiod: guiod@uofrochesterpresss.net.
