About the journal
Aims and scope of journal
postmedieval: a journal of medieval cultural studies is a cross-disciplinary, peer-reviewed journal in medieval studies that aims to bring the medieval and modern into productive critical relation. The journal will work to develop a present-minded medieval studies in which contemporary events, issues, ideas, problems, objects, and texts serve as triggers for critical investigations of the Middle Ages. Further, we are concerned to illuminate the deep historical structures–mental, linguistic, social, cultural, aesthetic, religious, political, sexual, and the like–that underlie contemporary thought and life, and therefore, we are also interested in attending to the question of the relation of the medieval to the modern (and vice versa) in different times and places. We want to also demonstrate the important value of medieval studies and the longest possible historical perspectives to the ongoing development of contemporary critical and cultural theories that remain under-historicized. Finally, we will advocate for and support the continuing development, from any and all disciplinary directions, of historicist, materialist, comparatist, and theoretical approaches to the subjects of the Middle Ages.

Notes for contributors
postmedieval is published four times a year. Most issues are themed and curated by guest editors. Open topic issues are also published. The editors will also entertain proposals for small, themed “clusters” of 2-3 essays to be included in the open issues.
Information about forthcoming themed issues, together with contact details for guest editors, is available via the links in the menu to the left of the page.
If you have a suggestion for or would like to guest-edit a themed issue, or would like to discuss the appropriateness of an article for an open issue prior to submission, please contact the editors, Eileen Joy (ejoy@siue.edu) and Myra Seaman (seamanm@cofc.edu).
postmedieval can only accept submissions of unpublished manuscripts which are not being considered by other publications. All articles are subject to peer review and the final decision to publish rests with the editors.

Ethics Policy
This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics. We expect all prospective authors to read and understand our Ethics Policybefore submitting any manuscript to this journal. This policy details the responsibilities of all authors, editors and reviewers working with and for Palgrave Macmillan Journals as well as our own ethical responsibilities. This includes, but is not limited to, plagiarism, falsification of data, misuse of third party material, fabrication of results and fraudulent authorship. Please note that submitted manuscripts may be subject to checks using the iThenticate service, in conjunction with CrossCheck, in order to detect instances of overlapping and similar text. TheiThenticate software checks submissions against millions of published research papers, documents on the web, and other relevant sources. If plagiarism or misconduct is found, consequences are detailed in the policy.
Style Guidelines
Manuscript style guidelines
We prefer lively prose and creative use of language, and clear phraseology with direct tenses. In addition:
- Quotations should be within single quotation marks. When quoting within quotations, please use double quotes.
- Long quotations of five or more lines should be indented and single-spaced without quotation marks.
- Numbers 10 and higher should be in figures. Numbers lower than 10 should be spelt out in the text except when associated with a unit or period of time (‘9 meters’, ‘9 minutes’), when spanning a range (‘9 to 10’, not ‘nine to ten’, nor ‘9 to ten’), or in percentages (‘9%’).
- Dates should be in the form of 5 September, 1990; 1994-1998; or, the 1990s.
Reference format
postmedieval uses the Chicago Author-Date style, with in-text references and an alphabetical reference list at the end.
Please refer to the “Author-Date Citations and Reference Lists” described in Chapter 16 of The Chicago Manual of Style. Some examples are given below.
References in the Text
In the text, use the last name(s) of the author(s) (without first name initials, unless there are two authors in your reference list with the same name) and year of publication
- Example:
Since Padilla (1985) published his seminal book…
For in-text citations, insert the author name and date in parenthesis before the final punctuation.
- Example:
…(Allatson, 2007).
Where possible, please include the specific page number(s). Insert a comma between the date and the page number(s).
- Example:
… (Mendoza, 2006, 15). Or, (Mendoza, 2006, 15-23).
Unpublished data and personal communications should include initials, last name, and year. Publications which have not yet appeared are given a probable year of publication.
- Example:
More recently, various scholars have discussed both the importance and the pitfalls of interracial collaboration (Capetillo-Ponce, 2009, 56; Betancur et al., 1999). Still others (G. Candelario, 2008, personal communication) suggest…
Publications by the same author(s) in the same year should be identified by adding a, b, c (e.g. 1984a, 2009b) to the year. If there are two authors for a publication, use both names separated by “and” (not “&”). If there are more than two authors, put the name of the first author followed by et al.
For internet citations, include the author's last name and year in text; a full citation should be placed in the references, including full URL and access date, according to the example below under “List of References.”

Sidenotes
postmedieval also publishes ‘side notes’, for short parenthetical observations. The side notes are published on the outside margins of the page, alongside the article, rather than as footnotes at the bottom of the page or as endnotes at the end of the article.
In order to keep side notes from becoming running columns on the side of the article text, we ask that authors keep all notes as brief as possible. Please place author-date references within the article, according to the style set out above, and use notes only to elaborate briefly on a particular point.
In your manuscript submission, show side notes as endnotes rather than footnotes. Please do not use the footnote/endnote macro in MS Word, as this formatting is lost in the typesetting process.
Illustrations
Supply figures and plates as separate files, in either TIFF or JPEG format, with their position within the text clearly indicated on the page where they are introduced. Images should be provided in greyscale and at a minimum of 300 dpi. Provide typed captions for figures and plates.
The journal is printed in black-and-white. Therefore, we prefer that you supply your figures in greyscale. Figures supplied in colour will be converted to greyscale for print unless the author confirms they will cover the cost of printing in colour (costs available from the production/editorial office). You may however request for any/all figures to be shown in colour in the HTML (web) version of your article, but bear in mind that the PDF/print version will still be black-and-white, so please make sure that colour is not critical to understanding any figures; and do not describe elements of the figure in terms of their colours. For example line graphs with several data series can usually be represented adequately in black-and-white by using different line styles and/or different shaped nodes.
