Irish Literature and Culture

Dear Colleagues,

Proposals are sought for the Special Issue of Humanities on the theme of Irish Literature and Culture. The topic is intentionally broad: the aim of the collection is to open the widest possible vista on the current state of Irish literature and culture. The project also aims to understand the critical methods and models currently being employed by Irish studies scholars and to open an interdisciplinary conversation across methodologies. We hope to provide a platform for a varied and robust discussion regarding the current state of Irish literature and culture and criticism on the topic.

Please submit abstracts of up to 300 words to the Editors, Robert Brazeau (rbrazeau@ualberta.ca) by July 1st, 2025. Your abstract should also include a short bio note. Contributors will be notified by July 15th, 2025; final essays will be due in early January 2026. You can find more information about Humanities here.

Dr. Robert Brazeau
Guest Editor
