The Hemispheric Institute of Performance and Politics cordially invites you to an evening reception in honor of HemiPress.

Please join us as we celebrate our 2017 Award for Excellence in Digital Scholarship, awarded by the Association for Theatre in Higher Education (ATHE) and the American Society for Theatre Research (ASTR). We will also be celebrating the release of our most recent publications.

HemiPress is the Hemispheric Institute’s digital publications imprint, created to house and centralize our diverse publication initiatives. Using a variety of customized open-source digital humanities platforms, HemiPress includes the Gesture short works series, the Duke U.P./HemiPressdigital books, stand-alone essays, and the Institute’s peer-reviewed journal emisférica, alongside interviews, Cuadernos, and other online teaching resources. It also provides state-of-the-art multilingual publication capacities and immersive formats for capturing the “live” of performance, as well as a digital “bookshelf”—the interface that houses all of the Institute’s publications and connects communities of readers across the Americas.
