Announcing the Launch of H-Autofiction

H-Net is pleased to announce the launch of a new network: H-Autofiction.

We invite you to subscribe for updates or request full membership at: https://networks.h-net.org/h-autofiction

H-Autofiction aspires to cultivate an inclusive and intellectually vibrant forum dedicated to the scholarly exploration of autofiction as both a critical framework and a creative practice. The network welcomes academics, researchers, educators, writers, and scholars working in autofiction and related fields, with a shared interest in the dynamic interplay among narrative, identity, and truth.

The network will disseminate a wide range of scholarly resources, including calls for papers, job announcements, blog posts, open-access materials, funding opportunities, and more. The editors are committed to fostering a collaborative environment in which members can pose questions, share pedagogical and research resources, and build connections with fellow scholars engaged in autofiction studies.

As the community evolves, the editorial team will seek to highlight and support significant research initiatives by integrating them into the network’s ongoing discourse.

For inquiries or expressions of interest in contributing to H-Autofiction, please contact the editorial team at: [email protected].

Autofiction Studies Network Launches New Listserv (Auto-Fiction)

The Autofiction Studies Network is an interdisciplinary and international network devoted to autofiction studies. The network's primary purpose is to allow for broader dissemination of information relating to autofiction studies. The network aims to facilitate a productive discussion on autofiction, inform scholars about recent publications in the field, share academic events, and promote research and exploration of the concept of autofiction.

The forum should be used for postings that connect with our subject area. Within that broad area, we encourage discussing cultural, linguistic, literary, social, historical, philosophical, practical and pedagogical matters relating to our discipline. The list is moderated by Hywel Dix of Bournemouth University and Auto/Fiction editor Shashibhusan Nayak.
