Forthcoming Series: Studies in the History of Privacy

 

Series Editors: Michaël Green, University of Lodz, and Jessica Roitman, Free University of Amsterdam

This book series offers a novel perspective on historical notions of privacy and everyday life from antiquity to modernity. Privacy as an analytical framework has begun to receive significant attention from scholars working across the whole range of historical disciplines. The editors aim to create a home for the burgeoning field of privacy research, encompassing all historical periods pre-1914. The series explores how existing definitions of privacy were foregrounded in the protection of private aspects of daily life in past societies. It also incorporates studies on topics that could more broadly be understood as belonging to the realm of the private, such as sexuality, family, household, and correspondence. The editors welcome contributions from all geographical areas, particularly encouraging scholars working beyond the European context to bring understudied regions and peoples to the forefront of the scholarly debate on the history of privacy.

The series welcomes the submission of mini-monographs (40.000 - 60.000 words) on specific subjects, standard monographs and edited volumes (80.000 - 120.000 words). Prospective authors are cordially invited to submit enquiries and proposals to the series editors, Michaël Green, Jessica Roitman, or the Publisher at Brill, Alessandra Giliberto.

Privacy studies in historical context have received significant attention thanks to the research conducted at the Danish National Research Foundation Centre for Privacy Studies at the University of Copenhagen under the direction of Prof. Mette Birkedal Bruun.
