CFP – The Oxford Handbook of Modern Transimperial History
Chères et chers collègues, Vous trouverez ci-dessous un appel à contribution concernant plusieurs chapitres du Oxford Handbook of Modern Transimperial History, actuellement en préparation. Bien cordialement, Damiano Matasci
—————
Dear colleagues, We are looking for advanced junior, mid-career, and senior historians interested in contributing a chapter to a volume we are co-editing, The Oxford Handbook of Modern Transimperial History, which is a balanced, big-picture overview focused on the later 1700s to the mid-1900s.
Building on their (also geographical) area of expertise, contributors offer a broad synthesis of their respective topic that can provide generalists with a useful introduction and serve as a benchmark for specialists.
Chapters draw on some primary and on secondary sources from as many languages as possible, and are 9,000 words long, including both footnotes and a short final bibliography.
We are looking for historians interested in writing the following chapters:
Nomadic empires Borderlands Oceans Sexuality Diaspora Slavery Law Liberalism Trade Literature If you are interested, pl. send a 500-1000 word long outline to cyrus.schayegh@graduateinstitute.ch <mailto:cyrus.schayegh@graduateinstitute.ch> by 23 September 2024.
The outline should not be a general note. Rather, it needs to concretely summarize all specific parts of your chapter.
We will notify you by 1 October whether your proposal has been accepted.
The deadline for draft 1 is 31 August 2025; will immediately give you feedback; and will need the second, final draft by 30 November 2025.
Please contact cyrus.schayegh@graduateinstitute.ch <mailto:cyrus.schayegh@graduateinstitute.ch> with any question you may have.
The editorial team:
Cyrus Schayegh (Geneva Graduate Institute), Daniel Hedinger (Universität Leipzig), Nadin Heé (Universität Leipzig), Damiano Matasci (Université de Genève), and Shellen Wu (Lehigh University)
