Scope of the Series:

Subterranean Lives reprints first-person accounts from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries by members of oppositional or stigmatized subcultures; memoirs by men and women who lived, whether by circumstance, inclination, or design, outside of the bounds of normative bourgeois experience. They include tramps, sexworkers, cultists, criminals, drug addicts, physically disabled people, sexual minorities, bohemians, revolutionaries, and other individuals who have survived on the margins, within the interstices, and across the boundaries of American society. Each volume presents either a book-length memoir or a selection of shorter texts in their entirety, together with an introduction and notes.

Volumes are aimed at a crossover audience. They should be useful to students and teachers, and serve as supplementary texts for undergraduate and graduate classes in American studies, American social history, cultural studies, and, depending on the book, gender studies, criminal justice, sociology, religious studies, labor history, urban studies, and other fields.

We are no longer accepting submissions for this series.
