          Breakthroughs in Mimetic Theory

          Series editor: William A. Johnsen
          Related series: Studies in Violence, Mimesis, and Culture

          Mimetic theory has been developed in a remarkable series of books, articles, and interviews by René Girard and his colleagues over the past forty years. The Breakthroughs in Mimetic Theory series features short monographs breaking new ground by initiating new connections among mimetic theory, models of human behavior, and other disciplines.

          Please direct proposals to William A. Johnsen.
