The Sports and Entertainment Series focuses on the study of sport in a
variety of areas, disciplines and cross-disciplines. Within the series,
Syracuse University Press publishes books that examine sport from
historical, sociological, political, economic, gender, and literary
approaches. We seek to publish books that analyze the internal histories of
particular sports, and also cutting edge scholarship that explores the
relationship between sport and such social and cultural variables as
business, education, government, international relations, journalism, media,
and race.
Building on the growth of the study of sports in the past two decades, these
books bridge the gap between academic scholarship and general readers. As
such, it will include anthologies, texts, translations, reissues of seminal
and out-of-print modern classics, works of literature and non-fiction, and
other books primarily intended for the general reader.
