News

Submissions are now open for the 2023 Essay Prize. The prize is awarded for particularly well written student papers in American or British Literature.

 

In their contribution to IdeAs: Idées d’Amériques, Ilka Saal and Jade Thomas investigate the form and function of plays-within-plays in contemporary African American drama.

"Slavery and the Post-Black Imagination," edited by Ilka Saal (Erfurt) and Bertram D. Ashe (U of Richmond) received an honorable mention at this year's MLA Prize as a "timely, inventive, and pathbreaking" publication.

We warmly congratulate our student Ciara Olzog and happily announce her paper as the winner of the Essay Prize for Papers in English and American Literatures 2022!
