Prolepsis
is the on-line book review journal
for
English studies.
Prolepsis
publishes reviews of new and
recent work in
English studies, a field we consider to be spacious and varied.
We are
trying to reflect the richness of our disciplines rather than to
reinforce existing orthodoxies.
We particularly encourage the reviewing of studies written in
languages other than English. Many of these studies deserve to
be
acknowledged internationally; a review in English, available
world-wide and with the speed we intend to make our hallmark,
can help
generate interest in work that would otherwise be confined to
one
country's academic community.
With the help of its transnational advisory board,
Prolepsis
aims to create a community of
reviewers from a
variety of different academic cultures. As an additional
feature, we
provide the authors and editors of the volumes reviewed with
space to
write short response notes which will be published and archived
just
like the reviews themselves. Thus, we intend to turn the
traditionally
monological reviewing process into a dialogue between reviewer
and
reviewed. We cordially invite all scholars in English Studies to
join
that dialogue.
We expect to be up and running some time early this summer!
