Professor Gray Kochhar-Lindgren (the associate vice chancellor for undergraduate learning and director of the Center for University Studies and Programs at the University of Washington, Bothell, as well as honorary professor at the University of Hong Kong) visited the Cambria Press booth and was pleasantly surprised to see that his book, which was just published, on display along with a poster of the book cover.

It is always great to meet authors in real life, especially so soon after the book project with Cambria Press is wrapped up.

Cambria Press Author Nathanael O'Reilly with his book Postcolonial Issues in Australian Literature

Cambria Press was delighted to have Professor Nathanael O’Reilly visit the Cambria Press booth. Professor O’Reilly’s book Postcolonial Issues in Australian Literature, which was published in 2010, is already earning rave reviews.

In fact, the Journal of the European Association of Studies on Australia praises the book because it provides, “provides a highly representative and high-quality sample of current thinking about the issues in Australian culture it deals with, as well as readings of those issues in terms of specific literary texts … to have published this collection of essays there [in the United States] is to have performed a useful service, for the summarising and contemporary nature of the collection is just the sort of thing hard-pressed libraries might acquire, not only in North America but wherever libraries want an up-to-date and high quality assessment of Australian literature in terms of the post-colonial priorities of the present.”

The book is in the Cambria Press Australian literature series (general editor: Dr. Susan Lever).

Professor David Sauer (Spring Hill College) and his lovely daughter visited the Cambria Press booth at the 2012 MLA annual convention.

Professor Sauer is the author of the newly published American Drama and the Postmodern: Fragmenting the Realistic Stage. It was delightful to find that he is every bit as lively and witty in person as he is in his e-mails, which never fail to bring good cheer to all at Cambria Press!

Cambria Press Book Highlight for MLA 2012: The Assassination of Shakespeare’s Patron

The Assassination of Shakespeare's Patron: Investigating the Death of the Fifth Earl of Derby By Leo Daugherty“This study of Lord Strange’s murder is cogent and marked by deep knowledge of the Age of Shakespeare. The peripheral illumination of Shakespeare’s stage career is very valuable.”

– Harold Bloom, Sterling Professor of the Humanities, Yale University

The Assassination of Shakespeare’s Patron: Investigating the Death of the Fifth Earl of Derby by Leo Daugherty

Cambria Press Book Series Highlight for MLA 2012: Cambria Studies in Contemporary Theatre and Drama Series

Cambria Press John Clum

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Cambria Studies in Contemporary Theatre and Drama Series calls for monographs on any aspect of contemporary theatre:

 

  1. Edited anthologies of plays by a particular author, from a particular country, or focusing on a particular subject. These collections should begin with a critical introduction to the works selected and include biographical material on each playwright and a bibliography.
  2. The economics of theatre in a particular culture.
  3. The relationship of theatre to society in a particular culture. We are particularly interested in books that address the central question of what the function of theatre is for a particular culture. Who goes to the theatre? Is theatre being used to effect political or social change in any culture? Is there any viable countercultural theatre?
  4. Theatre and current social and political issues.
  5. Drama and other media. We are interested in studies of television drama as well as staged drama. Is the internet a viable medium for drama?
