The Human-Animal Studies book series explores the relationship between human and nonhuman animals. It intentionally casts a wide net, producing titles from any setting, contemporary, historical, and prehistorical from the perspective of various disciplines within both the social sciences and humanities. The broad scope of the series is an acknowledgement of the contributions of a range of perspectives from across academia that often intersect in meaningful ways to build a scholarship of the nonhuman experience through a human lens. In the process, these books challenge the disciplinary cloisters that often hinder the transdisciplinary analysis that is vital to one the fastest growing fields in the academy. Whether examining the lived reality of nonhuman animals in environmental or legal settings or parsing human representations of those animals in popular culture, the Brill Human-Animal Studies Series presents a wide range of cutting-edge scholarship that always retains an eye to helping animals flourish and creating a more compassionate world.

The series seeks to promote work that, at minimum, demonstrates a concern for animals, that centers their issues. If a work is simply “about” animals, that isn’t enough. It needs to demonstrate a real understanding of the human relationship with animals and the consequences of those relationships for nonhuman individuals and populations. Though we encourage works that include specific animal advocacy, that advocacy isn’t a requirement. What is a requirement is a fulsome discussion of how the author’s subject matter impacts animals both positively and negatively. We are looking for animal-centered studies that prioritize their issues in relation to contact, broadly construed, with the human world.

Book proposals should include an abstract, an annotated table of contents, a list of competitive titles, a curriculum vitae, and one or two sample chapters of the work.
