punctum books welcomes submissions from authors working in any field in the humanities and fine arts and outside of the university proper as well. We are especially interested in neo-traditional and non-conventional scholarly work that productively twists and/or ignores academic norms, with an emphasis on books that fall length-wise between the article and the monograph—id est, novellas, in one sense or another. Works that take formal risks and/or engage with supposedly outmoded or antiquarian genres are also welcome. We are also open to publishing the proceedings of small symposia that take up in creative fashion any variety of humanities and para-humanities assemblages. If you would like to contact the Directors, Eileen Joy and Nicola Masciandaro, with a book proposal, write to them at punctumbooks@gmail.com and provide us with an abstract [~500 to ~1,000 words] detailing your book idea. If we like the idea, we’ll ask for a more detailed formal proposal. All works published by punctum books are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommerical-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License.
