From: John Armitage <[email protected]> Dear all I am currently working with Bloomsbury on a number of book projects related to conceptions of luxury, including co-editing The Luxury Reader. One such tentative project is my editorship of a book series, provisionally entitled “Luxury and …” Consequently, I invite anyone who might be interested in submitting a book proposal for a monograph on themes related to luxury to contact me. Your monograph proposal could focus on the relationship between luxury and: advertising; media; cultural studies; philosophy; literary theory; politics; sociology; anthropology; social/cultural theory; art history; film theory; feminism; video games; graphic art; fashion; textiles; fine art; design; and luxury branding. “Luxury and” will be an inter-disciplinary book series edited by Professor John Armitage at Winchester School of Art-University of Southampton and published by Bloomsbury. Please contact [email protected] for further details concerning your proposal. Best wishes. John
