Woolf Studies Annual 30

Pace University announces volume 30 of Woolf Studies Annual. In this volume, readers are consistently challenged to reconsider preconceived notions of Woolf’s life and work. Its topics include Jacob’s Room as an anti-war Modernist novel, the feminist reception of Woolf’s “madness” and suicide, and the ecological and pyrocenic insights of The Waves and The Years.

Copies available June 1st!

Journal of Comics and Culture Volume 8

The portrayal of women in comic books, as well as the roles of women in the comic book industry itself, has, since the medium’s beginning, been somewhat of a controversial issue. This issue examines the roles of women in comic book industries in other countries and how they differ from the comics industry in America. Stylistic innovations by women comic artists, thematic choices, and the creation of entirely new genres by women authors are also inspected. This 8th volume of the journal is dedicated to comics creator Ramona Fradon, who tragically passed away at 97, two months after retiring.

The Publishing Lab

Introducing: The Publishing Lab

This anthology was written and edited by Pace University MS in Publishing students. These pages are filled with extraordinary craft, containing stories of whimsy, history, loneliness, and hope. There are multiple genres ranging from poetry, prose, romance, fantasy, as well as writings in three languages.

Readers can expect to travel the world with daring characters who undergo impossible feats, defy their fears, and take on the most gruesome antagonists. There are many predicaments, but just as there are challenges, there are moments that feel untouchable, gentle, and pure in nature. These original stories are filled with heart and unfiltered joy.

This is the first volume of an anthology of student creative work that will be published yearly. The MS in Publishing program proudly shares this anthology as a representation of its student authors.

Words We Use

PUPText’s first reference guide

This glossary provides an overview of the terms publishing professionals use in every department, from editorial to sales. In some cases, the language is similar in books and magazines, digital media, or comics, but may have a different meaning. This guide includes those differences. The words used in publishing and media are a distinct and essential part of our ability to communicate with each other. Language is not static and the language in publishing has grown, changed, and continues to evolve in our digital world. The industry has progressed digitally and some of the language that has developed along with that growth is included here. You will find words new and old, common usage, and more esoteric terms reflecting new digital realities.

Transactions 24

The 42nd Annual Meeting of the Society of Fellows of Dyson College kicked off with a morning plenary panel, showcasing the work of four students from programs as far afield as English Language and Literature, Biology, Philosophy, and Psychology. Together, all these works offer a glimpse of the exciting research and writing (and performing) that undergraduate students have engaged in across the fine arts, humanities, natural sciences, and social sciences at Pace in the past year.

Journal of the Early Book Society 26

Including the articles “Books as Chapels” and “Academic Loans and Scholarly Networks in Late Medieval Oxford,” and “The Continued Instruction of Christian Women.”

The Journal of the Early Book Society for the Study of Manuscripts and Printing History (Journal of the Early Book Society (JEBS)) publishes several substantial articles in each volume with emphasis on the period of transition from manuscript to print. This annual’s main focus is on English and Continental works produced from 1350 to 1550.

Journal of Beat Studies 11

This volume’s critical essays are rich in scope. One essay revitalizes the evolutionary place of the poet Kenneth Rexroth, archival research on Kerouac’s ethnic and cultural origins in Brittany, Ginsberg’s committed engagement with the philosophical traditions of Indian civilization and The Beat Interview —published here for the first time—brings new perspectives to the art scene that flourished around San Francisco’s 6 Gallery, site of the celebrated reading of “Howl” in 1955.

 

 

Perspectives on Early Childhood Phylosophy and Education 8.1

Including the articles “Influence of the Linguistic Context on the Comprehension of
Complex Sentences” and “Twice-Exceptional Black girls.”

This general issue provides researchers and practitioners perspectives on current authentic assessment practices across disciplines and is inclusive of international work.
