Edinburgh Critical Studies in Renaissance Culture is a diverse and innovative series publishing monographs and essay collections on the interpretation of Renaissance culture. Though its emphasis is on the English Renaissance, the series has a broad scope and includes work on a range of languages and cultures. The New Historicist vision of an integrated poetics of culture has splintered in various ways, replaced by a series of successive ‘turns’ or relatively autonomous subfields. This series aims instead to create spaces within which diverse texts, discourses and concepts, though separated by conventional disciplinary and methodological boundaries, can co-habit and transform one another. Recognising the barriers, both disciplinary and institutional, that have historically shaped our field, we are particularly keen to see work engaged with critical race studies.
