CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS:
Studies in Medievalism XXVIII
Though scholars have addressed many examples of medievalist
discrimination, much work remains to be done on the treatment of
systematically underrepresented and/or disenfranchised communities in
postmedieval responses to the Middle Ages. Moreover, the recent, highly
public exchange between Rachel Fulton Brown and Dorothy Kim suggests we,
as scholars of medievalism, need to examine discrimination among our
own ranks. What biases are suggested by our choice of topics, our
approaches to them, and the fora in which we discuss them? How are those
conversations shaped by publishers, universities, and other
institutions that represent the Establishment? If we wish to expose,
subvert, or avoid such prejudices, how can we best do so? Studies in Medievalism,
a peer-reviewed print and on-line publication, is seeking 3,000-word
(including notes) essays on these and related questions about
medievalism and about the scholarship on it, as well as 6,000 to
12,000-word (including notes) articles on any postmedieval responses to
the Middle Ages. Please send all submissions in English and Word to Karl
Fugelso (kfugelso@towson.edu) by August 1, 2018.
