New Graduate Student Medieval Studies Journal at the CUNY Graduate Center

From Ethan Zadoff:


The Medieval Studies Certificate Program (MSCP) and Pearl Kibre Memorial Study at the CUNY Graduate Center has started a new gradate student journal.


We are currently putting together our first volume based on last year's annual MSCP conference theme titled "Intimacy: Family, Fealty and Friendship in Middle Ages" and we are soliciting submissions from graduate students in fields related to medieval studies for our inaugural edition. We are planning a fairly aggressive time frame for the publication of the first volume and as such, if you wish to submit your work please do so no later than Friday January 7 to allow for a full editorial process to take shape.

We also welcome reviews of recently published books. The first volume will be an online volume only and we would like submissions to be no longer than forty-five double spaced pages.

If you are interested in submitting a paper or book review or if you have any questions please contact Ethan Zadoff at Ezadoff@gc.cuny.edu
