Description
Studies in Medieval and Renaissance History, with a tradition of scholarly excellence established in 26 previous annual volumes, springs forward under the auspices of the Arizona Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies. Its new editors will preserve the journal's high quality in all aspects of medieval and early-modern history and, to that end, invite contributions that treat the history of any theme during the chronological period 400 - 1700. ""SMRH"" provides an ideal venue for the presentation of scholarship that sometimes falls outside the purview of other scholarly journals. Translations, commentaries on texts, and articles too long for similar publications are welcomed in ""SMRH"". To increase the annual's effectiveness, not only for monographic publication, but as a force for shaping future scholarship, the editors envision publishing several review articles that relate to the theme of each issue. These articles will provide an overview of recent historiographical developments, debates, and issues that relate to the annual topic.
