Duke University Press Fall and Winter 2026 Catalog

Page 1


A Letter from our Director

This year marks the 100th anniversary of Duke University Press. For a century, our books and journals have traveled into classrooms, libraries, bookstores, and homes around the world, carried there by readers like you. This catalog celebrates that long journey and the daring new conversations that continue to emerge from it.

We exist because readers believe that ideas matter: that careful scholarship, bold thinking, and creative expression deepen our understanding of the world. Since 1926, Duke University Press has been committed to publishing works that expand the horizons of knowledge and challenge us to see differently. Our authors—

scholars, artists, and public intellectuals—have asked difficult questions about power, culture, history, race, gender, technology, and the environment. They have defined new fields of inquiry and reimagined established ones.

Throughout our history, the press has been shaped by a global community of readers who recognize that our books are sites of encounter between disciplines, traditions of thought, and across generations. Each book bears the imprint of intellectual labor: the curiosity of the author, the rigor of peer reviewers, the care of editors and designers, and the attention of readers who take these ideas into their own work and lives.

As we celebrate DUP100, we are mindful that the work of a university press is never finished. The questions facing our world—about democracy, justice, knowledge, and the future of our planet— demand fearless and generous scholarship. Our task is to ensure that such work finds its way into the world with integrity and reach.

From Halfway to Freedom: The Struggles and Strivings of Black Folks in Washington, DC to Transplanetary Futures: Outer Space in the Latinx Imagination, the books in this Fall 2026 catalog reflect that commitment. They explore hidden histories, cultures that continue to transform our understanding of art and society, and ideas that invite us to imagine new possibilities for collective life.

I am grateful to our authors, editors, reviewers, librarians, booksellers, readers, and our staff. Your engagement sustains the conversations that make scholarly publishing meaningful.

One hundred years in, we remain guided by a simple conviction: that rigorous scholarship and adventurous thinking belong in the public sphere, where they can inform debate, inspire discovery, and enlarge the spaces of knowledge.

Thank you for reading—and for moving these ideas forward.

Sincerely,

Halfway to Freedom

The History of Black Washington, DC MAURICE JACKSON

a Foreword

“In Maurice Jackson, ‘Chocolate City’ has found its preeminent historian. And that’s an understatement, for Halfway to Freedom offers a window on to the full history of our settler, slaveholding, and segregated Republic, and a spotlight on the brilliant, creative, and courageous Washingtonians who showed the nation and the world how to be free. A truly magnificent achievement.”—

KELLEY, author of Thelonious Monk: The Life and Times of an American Original

For over two hundred years, the history and culture of the District of Columbia has been in great part shaped by its Black residents. Several Black men were elected to political positions citywide only a handful of years after the end of the Civil War, and while the years after Reconstruction saw the region plagued with segregation and racial violence, the capital’s Black population continued to grow at all economic levels. Washington became the first major US city with a majority Black population in 1957, a status it held for almost 70 years as gentrification has led to the decline of Black political and economic power in DC in the twenty-first century.

Halfway to Freedom is a social, political, intellectual, and cultural history of African Americans in Washington, DC, looking at the role that race, gender, color, class, and power have played in the city and its relationship with the federal government. Maurice Jackson explores the material conditions that shaped life for African Americans, free and enslaved, from the earliest moments of the District’s history to more contemporary times of organization and activism. Through an array of archival materials, especially first-hand accounts of Black residents in the area, Jackson critiques how and why DC exists as a haven within the Black American imaginary given the realities of conflict its Black residents have faced and continue to face today. In doing so, he also highlights and honors the gains they have earned through the concerted struggles of labor organizations, women’s movements, sports, music, art, legal activism, and more.

Maurice Jackson teaches history at Georgetown University. He is the author of Rhythms of Resistance and Resilience and Let This Voice Be Heard. He is coeditor of DC Jazz ; African Americans and the Haitian Revolution; and Quakers and Their Allies in the Abolitionist Cause, 1754–1808.

From Hate to Hallows

Reframing Black Church Arson

As sites of Black gathering, respite, spiritual uplift, and even capital accrual, Black churches have always been targets for white supremacists. From Hate to Hallows explores the meanings Black people make from Black church arson following a 2015 incident in Knoxville, Tennessee, the author’s hometown.

Anna Murray Douglass

Biography of a Revolutionary CELESTE-MARIE BERNIER

“In this extraordinary study, Celeste-Marie Bernier reclaims Anna Murray Douglass from the margins of history and restores her to the center of nineteenth-century radicalism. Going against the constraints of conventional biography, Celeste-Marie Bernier unveils groundbreaking archival discoveries and weaves a powerful reappraisal of African American women’s intellectual, political, and cultural labor in the struggle against slavery.”

SIR ISAAC JULIEN CBE RA

Anna Murray Douglass was born legally free in Maryland to Mary and Bambarra Murray. From working with her future husband, Frederick Douglass, to secure his self-liberation from enslavement to converting her family homes to command centers for the Underground Railroad, she dedicated her entire life to the fight for all freedoms and to supporting loved ones and strangers alike in their fight for equal, independent lives. Her deeds have long gone unsung until now.

In this first-ever standalone biography of the wife and co-revolutionary of Frederick Douglass, Celeste-Marie Bernier provides a detailed and illustrated history of Anna Murray Douglass’s leadership roles in fighting against the injustices of enslavement, racism, and white supremacy, as well as how she laid the foundation for her family to follow in her and her husband’s footsteps. After over three decades of archival research, Bernier presents a wide-ranging collection of stories, writings, letters, and photographs in a comprehensive and illuminating biography of Anna Murray Douglass’s life and work as an educator, activist, intellectual, orator, political thinker, artist, philosopher, and strategist. Ultimately, Bernier aims to combat the widespread misrepresentation that the liberation movement bearing the Douglass name was the work of one individual when it was, in reality, a family institution. Anna Murray Douglass is the first book in a ten-volume collection detailing the life and work of the entire Douglass family including their children, Rosetta, Lewis Henry, Frederick, Jr., Charles Remond, and Annie Douglass, all freedom-fighters in their own right.

Celeste-Marie Bernier holds a Personal Chair of United States and Atlantic Studies at the University of Edinburgh. Among her works are over twenty single and coauthored books and scholarly editions. She is a Senior Advisor at Frederick Douglass Family Initiatives and an Honorary Member of the Frederick Douglass Honor Society. She lives in Carlisle, UK.

Making Gay History

Memoir of a Scholar-Activist

JOHN D’EMILIO

Making Gay History continues John D’Emilio’s story, following his memoir of his early years, Memories of a Gay Catholic Boyhood. Here, D’Emilio recounts his career as a public historian, activist, and academic, relating his own queer history alongside the development of the lgbtq movement in the United States. D’Emilio was part of the first burgeoning period of lgbtq studies while still a graduate student in New York City. From there, he takes readers through his experiences as an out professor at UNC Greensboro, his activism in Washington, DC, and finally, his employment at the University of Illinois as an lgbtq historian, a position that was unimaginable at the start of his career. At the same time, he narrates his own coming out, his successes and struggles with lgbtq advocacy, and the loves and losses faced throughout his adult life, telling an intertwined personal and national history of queer hearts and minds.

Cisgender

Disorienting a Category PERRY ZURN

“This is the definitive book on the genealogies, uses, and panics that inform and animate the circulation of the term cis-. With engrossing prose and an expansive archive, Cisgender offers readers the opportunity to reflect on what was, what is, and what could have been. A must-read for anyone interested in gender and politics!”— C. RILEY SNORTON, coauthor of A Black Queer History of the United States

In Cisgender, Perry Zurn turns an incisive yet playful eye toward the “norm” against which transgender gets defined. A cisgender person is informally understood as someone who doctors called male or female at birth, became a boy or girl, and finally lived as a man or woman—without fuss. It’s this “without fuss” that anchors the cis/trans binary as it has come to be understood and belies the complex relationship all people have with gender. How did this category arise? And what else might it do? Cisgender is the first book to trace the story of how cis entered contemporary gender lexicons. Utilizing unplumbed archives and fresh interviews, Zurn offers a critical history of the term from the 1990s to the present, deftly defamiliarizing and reimagining cis at the same time. This unique examination of cisgender is a must-read for all readers invested in trans life and the futures of gender.

ASTERISK: GENDER, TRANS-, AND ALL THAT COMES AFTER

A series edited by Susan Stryker, Eliza Steinbock, Jian Neo Chen, and Marquis Bey

Perry Zurn is Provost Associate Professor of Philosophy at American University.

She has authored multiple books, including Closures: Heterosexuality and the American Sitcom, published by Duke University Press, and Pleasure and Efficacy: Of Pen Names, Cover Versions, and Other Trans Techniques.

Personal Demons

Possession Narratives of Late Liberalism

GRACE LAVERY

“A thrilling and utterly original book. Propulsively readable; Lavery’s luminous prose carries us through a captivating archive to reveal the surprising centrality of the trope of transsexual demonic possession to contemporary debates over embodiment, consciousness, agency, and the possibility of shared reality. When liberal rights claims have so spectacularly failed to defend trans kids (or trans adults), we need this book and Grace Lavery’s singular voice.”— ANN PELLEGRINI, coauthor of Gender Without Identity

Personal Demons offers a new theory of the relation between sex, desire, and personhood, asking what we should make of the many contemporary instances when bodies seem to want different things from the consciousnesses within them. Grace Lavery maps the negative energies—demonic, incoherent, resistant—through which liberalism produces and disciplines its scapegoats. Through an examination of modern possession narratives, from racialized spectacles of bodily transformation and disguise to the liturgy of the Church of Scientology, Lavery unspools the knot of body, affect, and representation at the end of liberalism. In the face of the uneasy bargains queer and trans liberal organizations made with the phobic state, Personal Demons elaborates a vision of queer collective living that does not assume a shared concept of interiority, taking the incompatibility of such concepts as the founding axiom for a coalition against the ideological regulation of bodies and minds.

Notes from the Sex Worker Left

Lumpen Theory

HEATHER BERG

“Notes from the Sex Worker Left traces a leading edge of radical theory. Beyond racial capitalism, beyond the state and beyond the family, sex workers are naming and pursuing the revolutionary horizon. This book is the thinking we all urgently need for our collective survival and liberation.”—

M. E. O’BRIEN, author of Family Abolition: Capitalism and the Communizing of Care

In dressing rooms and shared cab rides home, mutual aid collectives and reading groups, sex workers are experimenting with how to live otherwise. Notes from the Sex Worker Left highlights unruly thinkers at the cutting-edge of radical political theory. Drawing on interviews with sex workers as well as their political and creative writings, Heather Berg curates an archive of radical thought on the trappings of respectability, the failures of work, and the role of everyday resistance in collective, militant struggle. Berg grounds her analysis in the perspective of the lumpenproletariat—the mutinous, precarious, and often criminalized counterpart to the respectable working class. Lumpen theorists use their position on the margins to imagine futures that welcome everyone for whom the usual solutions are not nearly enough. The nuclear family, the wage relation, the gendered racial capitalist state: all must go. Notes from the Sex Worker Left offers tools to dismantle them.

Heather Berg is Associate Professor of Labor Studies and Gender Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles and is the author of Porn Work: Sex, Labor, and Late Capitalism.

Ann Cvetkovich is Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at The University of Texas at Austin. She is the author of Depression: A Public Feeling and An Archive of Feelings: Trauma, Sexuality, and Lesbian Public Cultures, both published by Duke University Press.

Learning from the High Priestess

Affect, Femme Care, and Somatic Practice

ANN CVETKOVICH

“Learning from the High Priestess is a bold and creative book that prioritizes practices of survival in times of catastrophe and collapse. It asks us to think anew about mental health at a time when so much of what seemed certain has proved to be uncertain, turning toward feminist theory and practice to offer tools and strategies for living on, in whatever form that might take.”

JENNIFER C. NASH, author of How We Write Now: Living with Black Feminist Theory

In Learning from the High Priestess, Ann Cvetkovich integrates theory and somatic practice to assemble a survival guide for artists, academics, and activists in search of new strategies for social justice in times of trouble. Building on her previous work on why feelings matter to political action and intellectual inquiry, Cvetkovich shows how experiments in writing can be a form of affective and somatic practice. She uses four key themes—care, disability and madness, trauma and somatics, and breath—as launch points for reframing discourses of mental health in the direction of practices for decolonizing bodyminds and for the sensory experience of freedom. Engaging with writer/practitioners from Alexis Pauline Gumbs and Alison Bechdel to Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, Staci Haines, and Kai Cheng Thom, and with particular emphasis on Black feminisms, Cvetkovich places femme care and embodied practice at the center of movements for social transformation.

Speaking of America

Great Conversations at the Library of Congress

“The incomparable David Rubenstein once again invites us into conversation—this time with thought leaders of our own era as they assess people and events from the Revolution to the present.

Miracle Road

The Story of Research Triangle Park ALLEN PAUL and MACK PAUL

“Discover how North Carolina defied the odds, transforming from ‘brain-drain’ state to global technology titan. Read firsthand accounts of the Triangle’s evolution, where elite academic assets, radical collaborative spirit, and ambition for excellence built the foundation for decades of success. A must-read!”

TIMOTHY HUMPHREY, Provost at Wake Technical Community College

Research Triangle Park in North Carolina (rtp) emerged under the unique circumstances of a poor Southern state that needed to find a way to offset the declining industries of tobacco, furniture, and textiles in the 1950s. Through the sustained commitment of nearby universities, business leaders, and local and state officials, state leaders established the largest science and research park in the United States in an area that was nothing but “possums and pines.” Miracle Road tells this story through the eyes of those at the center of it, like the local black leaders who convinced white officials to desegregate public schools with the justification that it would make the area more appealing to tech companies, or how a chance meeting between the governor and a Danish executive led to North Carolina becoming an epicenter for weight loss drugmakers decades later. Allen Paul and Mack Paul organize the story around major periods in rtp’s growth, showing how rtp came to define the region and the state by the 1990s as well as the major setbacks it encountered in the early 2000s. Breaking down the strategies that led to rtp’s success, like creating new institutions in targeted tech areas to spur activity and factoring quality of life into the regional planning of the area, Miracle Road demonstrates how the story of Research Triangle Park is a fascinating and important case study of urban development in the twenty-first century.

Higher Education Faculties

A Dialogue on Inciting Constructive Change in Destructive Times

“Faculties is for anyone who wants institutional change and hasn’t fallen prey to cynicism or defeatism. The authors know their subject as well as anyone, and they impart their knowledge gracefully. Amidst a crisis in higher education provoked by a mercurial government, the ethos the authors embody arms us for the work to preserve our educational enterprise.”

ROTH, President, Wesleyan University

Faculties is a call to action, a sourcebook, and a “how to” guide for academic colleagues who want to contribute to the administrative and educational decisions being made about the future of our institutions. There is no going back to the version of US higher education that existed twenty, ten, or even one year ago. Cathy N. Davidson and Jody Greene encourage faculty and allies to incite and participate in change by offering models of successful, constructive collaboration at a destructive and demoralizing time for higher education. Faculties focuses on the urgency of coalition-building, offering data and analyses of the structural, financial, ideological, and organizational circumstances that can support or inhibit productive change in colleges, universities, and research institutions. Presented in the form of dialogues between Davidson and Greene, two of higher education’s most innovative leaders, Faculties retains a welcoming, conversational tone while incorporating extensive references and citations and addressing the drastic changes to higher education since January 2025. Faculties offers the evidence and inspiration needed to enact institutional transformation now.

Cathy N. Davidson is Distinguished Professor and Founder of The Futures Initiative at the City University of New York Graduate Center.

Jody Greene is Professor of Literature and Founding Director of the Teaching and Learning Center at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

John Brackett is a writer and historian. His previous books include Live Dead: The Grateful Dead, Live Recordings, and the Ideology of Liveness, published by Duke University Press, and John Zorn: Tradition and Transgression

Touch of Grey, or How the Grateful Dead Became Pop Stars

“A crucial, careful, and fun look inside one of the Grateful Dead’s least-examined and least-understood periods, perhaps ironically also their commercial peak.”— JESSE JARNOW, co-host of the Good Ol’ Grateful Deadcast and author of Heads: A Biography of Psychedelic America

Touch of Grey, or How the Grateful Dead Became Pop Stars tells the story of how one song transformed the popular legacy of one of rock’s most iconic musical groups. John Brackett traces the history of the song “Touch of Grey,” beginning with songwriter Robert Hunter’s lyrical sketches and the Grateful Dead’s earliest live arrangements, culminating in the group’s popular renaissance following the release of “Touch of Grey” and the album In the Dark in the summer of 1987. Brackett details how particular recording technologies, notable musical characteristics, modes of attending and listening, and the mechanics of the contemporary music industry shaped this defining moment in the group’s career. Drawing on extensive archival research, Touch of Grey examines how the band and their label worked to produce a hit record, a dynamic music video, and an effective promotional campaign that would propel the Grateful Dead from a group with a devoted cult following to become a pop culture phenomenon.

Ninety-Nine

A Kaleidoscopic Portrait of Allah

AMIRA MITTERMAIER

“This is a moving, poetic, elegant, and beautifully written book about how people experience God in Egypt. It is a reflection on how God is felt and heard and seen, and thus, about how God is held in the awareness of God’s followers in richly varied ways. Sometimes secular observers think that the main anthropological question about religion is belief. This book show us how flat-footed that perspective can be.”—

, author of How God Becomes Real: Kindling the Presence of Invisible Others

According to Islamic tradition, God has at least ninety-nine names. In Ninety-Nine, Amira Mittermaier presents ninety-nine short chapters based on her fieldwork and interviews with over one hundred Egyptians about who God is to them. In Egypt’s turbulent twenty-first century—the Egyptian uprising, a military coup, a pandemic, a climate crisis, wars across the region—God is talked about endlessly yet remains elusive. Ninety-Nine follows Allah into different spaces and conversations without ever claiming to get the full picture. We meet a Cairo beggar, an enigmatic dervish, a queer agnostic, and a Salafi housewife. We meet a depressed God, a cute God, a God who has stopped caring, a loving God, and a God who is a bully. We learn about divine interventions, big and small, and about daily struggles, even fights, with God. An intimate mosaic of Allah, Ninety-Nine celebrates the multiplicity inherent to the Islamic tradition and offers insight into how present-day Muslims grapple with big theological questions amidst their busy lives.

Ghost Woman

A Rising CRYSTAL SIMONE SMITH

“Crystal Simone Smith’s Ghost Woman is a stunning collection of fearless poems; an essential book of selected haiku and haibun by one of the most important American haiku poets to emerge during the past decade. If you want to learn haiku and its possibilities, then read Ghost Woman, because it depicts life as it is/was, including the ghost/s of slavery.”— LENARD D. MOORE , former president, Haiku Society of America and author of A Million Shadows at Noon

In Ghost Woman, Crystal Simone Smith explores the long and deep connections between nature, personhood, ancestry, and trauma through haiku and haibun. Separated into five sections, the poems emphasize the way social bonds and landscapes are reflected in and through the environment. Smith brings her experiences with race, motherhood, and poetry into conversation with the five elements, Wind (Fu), Earth (Chi), Water (Sui), Fire (Ka), and Void (Ku) to take readers through an introspective haiku journey, an exploration of the nature of the self as well as the nature of the broader world. Balancing shattering grief with ordinary moments of love and trauma with survival, Ghost Woman weaves a narrative verse of single motherhood, bearing witness, and carrying your history with you. The poems in Ghost Woman invite the reader to be with nature and themselves more intentionally.

Flight Lines

A

Poetics of Black Space

“We enter Flight Lines and meet the world differently—we see the hitherto undetectable; perceiving, for example, not only the interior and exterior of a train and the line it travels, but the ground it shakes and the air it parts. Elleza Kelley expands our understanding of black writers’ and visual artists’ praxis, their formal innovations, and the complex geographies from and in which black people live and create.”— CHRISTINA SHARPE , author of Ordinary Notes

In Flight Lines, Elleza Kelley argues that African American art and writing make visible the unmappable dimensions of black space, not simply by depicting black worlds but by registering how black spatial praxis takes form under conditions of racial enclosure. Reading across literature and visual art, from W. E. B. Du Bois and Zora Neale Hurston to Faith Ringgold, Romare Bearden, and Gwendolyn Brooks, Kelley tracks spatial knowledge across media and contends that where mediums meet, black aesthetic form emerges as a crucial site for conceptualizing black space in the United States. Moving from Southern landscapes shaped by racialized property to the postmigration geographies of Harlem and Chicago, Flight Lines follows fences, railroads, blocks, apartments, and rooftops as sites where enclosure is contested, improvised on, and transformed. Proposing that black space and black form are mutually constitutive, Kelley shows how black aesthetics illuminate the racial operations of enclosure while preserving alternative ways of inhabiting, sensing, and remaking racialized worlds.

Black Undertow

Meditative and theoretical, Black Undertow reorients the thinking of blackness away from the Atlantic to the African shorelines of the Indian Ocean, places where queerness and black life frequently brush up against one another. Hugo ka Canham listens for what he names the buzz of the undertow, the traces of African ancestors who linger in water, sand, coastal forts, corals, ritual practices, and unruly imaginations along the shore. In tracking these elusive figures, he develops an approach that honors a queer right to opacity. Canham reconstitutes the siloed disciplinarity that imagines African studies, Black studies, Queer African studies, and Queer studies as necessarily different. When read as coconstitutive instead, Canham demonstrates that they better allow for explicating local life, history, poetics, and theory. In so doing, he forges methods of studying black life that think beyond the limits of traditional, textual archives.

Alfredo Jaar

Decolonial Time and the Aesthetics of the Unfinished FLORENCIA SAN MARTÍN

With a Foreword by WOLFGANG KALECK

“It is rare that an artist whose work is deeply committed to sociopolitical issues receives detailed attention to that element rather than glancing references to alert the viewer. Alfredo Jaar is not only a globally important visual artist but a savvy and brilliant commentator/participant in the content at the heart of his work. In this book—as potentially groundbreaking as Jaar’s art—Florencia San Martín offers a dense, detailed, and intelligent analysis of the art and its crucial political contexts, opening up Jaar’s visual oeuvre to its real significance in and beyond the world of art.”— LUCY R. LIPPARD, writer, art critic, activist, and curator

In Alfredo Jaar, Florencia San Martín analyzes the work of the prominent Chilean-born artist Alfredo Jaar, whose work challenges the linear and triumphalist temporality of Western modernity, which obscures the violence of colonization and globalization. San Martín argues that Jaar’s work represents decolonial time, exposing the limits of the violent systems we oppose but inhabit. His art, she maintains, is informed by and responds to two interconnected historical events relevant to his own life: the US-backed military coup that established Pinochet’s dictatorship in Chile, and the implementation of its corollary neoliberal economic system around the world. San Martín explores the key themes in Jaar’s artistic practice—mourning, accountability, and failure—which situate the victims of the Chilean regime in a global context, directly confront the architects of atrocity, and question how ideas of diversity and inclusion have been co-opted by modern neoliberal discourses. Alfredo Jaar enables us to reimagine art history, offering a fresh paradigm from where to think about global contemporary art today.
