Brian LeechWhat is the scholarship equivalent of a novella? I’d like to write and read short books that are both more developed and detailed than an article but shorter than a regular monograph. Are there examples of this kind of thing being regularly published by someone? #AcademicToots #AUPresses #ScholarlyPublishing #UniversityPresses #HigherEd #histodons
Rebecca Colesworthy@brianleechphd Absolutely! A bunch of UPs and ac publishers have short book series—Forerunners at MN, the Objects series at Bloomsbury, Provocations at Nebraska, American Studies Now at UC, Practices at Duke, and others too that are escaping me rn.
matthewharrison@RColesworthy @brianleechphd I’ve been thinking about this, too: I’d much rather write short, and I think the result is more useful.
