Call for Contributors | Other Everests: New Perspectives on the World’s Highest Mountain | Open-Access (OA) edited collection of essays. Abstract submission deadline November 14, 2022
The Other Everests Research Network calls for contributions as chapters to a collected volume of essays to reassess the historical and cultural significance of Mount Everest in the modern world. Everest has become a well-known site for mountaineers in search of the ‘third pole’, high-altitude adventure, or individual dreams and desires. The centenary of the British expeditions in the 1920s is an opportune moment to reassess the social, political, economic, and environmental dynamics at work in this longer history.
