Founder and Series Editor, New Directions in Francophone Studies: Diversity, Decolonization, Queerness (EUP): Dedicated to diversity, inclusion, equity, and social justice in Francophone studies, this series publishes cutting-edge scholarship in the field. This series publishes monographs and edited collections in Francophone studies (all French-speaking regions) from the 19th century to today. It is grounded in and guided by decolonial, anti-racist, queer, feminist, intersectional, trans-affirming and inclusive principles and is open to publishing works in literary studies, visual arts, cultural studies, history and pedagogy. The series also brings together scholars at all career stages while providing specific mentoring and support to Early Career Researchers (ECRs) and researchers from underrepresented backgrounds.
