Marginalia -- The Journal of the Medieval Reading Group at Cambridge


Call for Submissions

Marginalia
A new, interdisciplinary graduate journal of the Middle Ages


'Margins': The theme of the first issue of Marginalia is ‘margins’. We welcome innovative and original interpretations and responses to this theme – from all areas of medieval studies – by graduate students. Articles might address the following themes:

- marginal annotation or illustration of manuscripts
- marginal social groups or marginalized themes and persons in literary sources
- little-known, under-studied or under-utilized texts, art-historical sources etc.

We invite submissions in the form of long articles (approximately 5,000 words) and shorter Notes and Queries style articles (approximately 1,000 words), which must conform to the MHRA style guide (available online at www.mhra.org.uk). Please see our Notes for Contributors for further details regarding style requirements and guidance about the form long and short articles should take.

Submissions should be sent no later than 18th March 2005 to the editors via emails to submissions@marginalia.co.uk. We will be happy to see brief proposals and to answer queries before the deadline (please email proposals and queries to the email address above). This first issue will initially be published on-line, and we aim to put out a hard copy version later in the year.

The editors of Marginalia are graduate students, advised by a board of academics, from the University of Cambridge.
