The Centre for American Studies and The School of English are delighted announce the launch of a new online journal. Transmotion is a biannual, fully and permanently open-access journal inspired by the work of Gerald Vizenor. The journal will publish new scholarship focused on theoretical, experimental, postmodernist, and avant-garde writing produced by Native American and First Nations authors, as well as book reviews on relevant work in Indigenous Studies, and new creative work that seeks to push boundaries.
The Centre for American Studies at the University was founded in 1973 and, over the last thirty years, has developed a strong interdisciplinary research culture. Transmotion is a collaborative venture with academics at California State University, the University of Georgia and European University Cyprus which celebrates the centre’s commitment to collaborative and interdisciplinary study.
