CFP: New Open Access Book Series in Philosophy of Religion - De Gruyter Open

De Gruyter Open, part of De Gruyter publishing group, invites book proposals for the inaugural volume of the new Open Access book series on Philosophy of Religion. 

The series welcomes proposals on any topic relating to the philosophy of religion; of particular interest are proposals on the problems or the philosophers that build connections between different philosophical traditions (e.g. analytic and continental), that are cross-cultural and/or comparative in approach, or chart new paths in research at the intersection of philosophy and religious studies.

Authors interested in submitting their proposals for the inaugural volume are asked to fill in the New Book Proposal Form (which can be found at http://degruyteropen.com/you/book-author/subjects/theology_religious_studies/) and send it to the series editor Dr. Thomas D. Carroll at [email protected], together with a sample from the book (introduction, chapter or subchapter). Authors of ready manuscripts are welcome to attach the whole text of the book.

The proposed book should be written in English, contain at least 100,000 words and must not have been published before in any language. The date of submission of the entire manuscript must be no later than November 2015. Earlier date of the submission will be an additional asset.

The author(s) of the inaugural volume(s) will benefit from:

- scrupulous peer-review

- free language edition done by native speakers in English

- no publication fees

- complimentary copies

- royalties from print sales

- unrestricted access to the book for all readers, helpful to reach audiences on a global scale

Our Open Access Books are available through De Gruyter's publishing platform, libraries, full text repositories and distributors such as Amazon. Each title is also offered as a print version.

Submissions are due by February 28, 2015.
