new suns: race, gender, and sexuality in the speculative edited by susana m. morris and kinitra d. brooks
scholarly examinations of speculative fiction have been a burgeoning academic field for more than twenty - five years, but there has been a distinct lack of attention to how attending to nonhegemonic positionalities transforms our understanding of the speculative. new suns: race, gender, and sexuality in the speculative addresses this oversight and promotes scholarship at the intersections of race, gender, sexuality, and the speculative, engaging interdisciplinary fields of research across literary, film, and cultural studies that examine multiple pasts, presents, and futures. of particular interest are studies that offer new avenues into thinking about popular genre fictions and fan communities, including but not limited to the study of afrofuturism, comics, ethnogothicism, ethnosurrealism, fantasy, film, futurity studies, gaming, horror, literature, science fiction, and visual studies. new suns particularly encourages submissions that are written in a clear, accessible style that will be read both by scholars in the field as well as by nonspecialists .

narrative publishes essays on narrative theory, essays on narrative and its relations to other modes of discourse, and essays of practical criticism based in diverse theoretical modes. the editors especially welcome submissions combining theoretical investigation and practical criticism. “narrative” for us is a category that includes the novel, narrative poetry, history, biography, autobiography, film, and performance art. because of our diverse audience, we are not interested in essays whose main contribution is to offer a new reading of a narrative by author x. however, we do welcome new readings that are linked with some theoretical exploration or that are of interest in some other way to those who are not specialists in author x .
explorations of theoretical issues, e. g. , a consideration of the powers and limits of the story - discourse distinction
essays on narrative as a kind of discourse, e. g. , narrative vs. lyric; film narrative in relation to verbal narrative
combinations of theoretical inquiry and practical application, e. g. , a reexamination of the relationship between homodiegetic and heterodiegetic narration in connection with an analysis of the narration of vanity fair
readings of individual narratives that are part of some larger theoretical project or that point to implications beyond the particular text under discussion, e. g. , middlemarch ’s relation to victorian conceptions of ideal femininity or lord jim ’s place in a marxist history of the novel
essays of institutional criticism or cultural commentary that focus on narrative or issues in narrative studies, e. g. , an analysis of the implied narratives of different kinds of pedagogy; a study of the culture war as a struggle over narrative authority
format. narrative follows a house style based on the chicago manual of style (15th ed .). authors should submit an electronic version (. doc) to narrativej @ urltoken. manuscripts should be in english and double - spaced with one - inch margins and with left - margin justification only. after papers have been accepted for publication, revisions should be submitted once again to narrativej @ urltoken .

quotations. quotations of fewer than eight lines are run into the text; quotations of eight lines or more are indented ten spaces from the left margin and double - spaced .

endnotes. narrative uses endnotes, not footnotes, for commentary; include limited bibliographic information as necessary in endnotes, but provide full bibliographic information for all references on the double - spaced works cited page (see below). authors should submit separate endnote sheets at the end of their manuscripts, following the chicago manual of style (15th ed .) .
images. images should be sent individually, in tiff, jpg, or png format, at least 300 dpi at page display size. the files should be numbered consecutively, and captions should be provided, including a permission line where appropriate .
