Call for Proposals for academic book chapters: “The Age of Lovecraft: Cosmic Horror, Posthumanism, and Popular Culture”.

Editors: Carl Sederholm at csederholm@byu.edu / Jeffrey Weinstock at Jeffrey.Weinstock@cmich.edu

250-word proposals are sought for chapters for an edited scholarly collection on H.P. Lovecraft and his place in 21st century literature, film, media, and popular culture. This collection will consider the late 20th and early 21st century as “The Age of Lovecraft”, as he achieves unprecedented levels of cultural saturation. In short, we will be asking ‘why Lovecraft, why now’?

Deadline for proposals: 31st October 31st 2012. Chapters of approximately 6,000 words due one year later.
