Calenda 2026-04-17
Summary:
We invite submissions for the edited volume The Handbook of Religion and Transmedia Storytelling: From Antiquity to the Digital Age. We invite scholars across disciplines, including religious studies, media studies, cultural studies, literary studies, narrative studies, anthropology, and political science. We particularly welcome proposals that focus on a wide range of traditions and cultural contexts, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Indigenous traditions, Afro-diasporic religions, and esotericism. We also encourage contributions that examine phenomena at the intersections of religion and broader cultural domains, for example conspiracy theories, speculative fiction, nonfiction paranormal narratives, and apocalyptic narratives.
