Series Description

Inter/Connexions Press aims to promote and encourage work that is collaborative, innovative, imaginative, and which provides exemplars for interdisciplinary publishing. To this end, the Press fosters and encourages the production of collaborative volumes which result from interdisciplinary research.

 

Our books, therefore, tend to be co-authored or edited collections that are firmly focused on developing dialogical models of publishing where the internal interaction of chapters is of paramount importance.

 

We believe that books are like stepping stones in a river: each can stand alone and serve its purpose in its particular place, but the broader function of every publication is to facilitate progression across many others. Knowledge is dynamic; consolidation of understanding is always in progress, and yet this goes hand in hand with sparks of curiosity and the arousal of new interests. Our books reflect these complexities, as they strive to bring together cognate topics and ideas while, at the same time, explicitly or by implication, alerting readers to new questions and problems.

Barbara Gabriella Renzi

My work has always been interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary. While I initially worked on cognitive metaphors and how they influence the way we see the world, I am now looking at how the metaphors shape us. In an interplay of inside and outside I have dealt with biological metaphors and philosophy of science, depression and conflict and now I am trying to understand how and which "external", "sociological" metaphors are incorporated into the construction of identity of migrants and minorities cultures. I am particularly interested in the concepts of shame (which I might consider plural). I am also a writer and translator. I am a philosopher and CBT therapist.
