ExP - THE BOOK SERIES OF SLSAeu (with Brill | Rodopi)
EXPERIMENTAL PRACTICES Technoscience, Literature, Art, Philosophy General Editors: Stephan Besser, Christoph Brunner, Elisabeth Friis, Ines Kleesattel, Manuela Rossini The series consists of two strands: 1. Experimental Practices Monographs publishes both works by single authors and truly collaborative volumes. As well as books on larger historical, political and theoretical topics and experimental collaborations across disciplines, it encourages studies concentrating on a single author, artist or indeed work – always providing that such ‘case studies’ provide a direct contribution to theoretical or methodological issues. 2. The Experimental Practices Yearbook publishes papers from the European Society for Science, Literature and the Arts. Each yearly publication has a strong individual identity, centered on a specific topic and is entrusted to guest editors. |
