Modern Intellectual History publishes scholarship in intellectual and cultural history from 1650 onwards. MIH concerns itself primarily with apprehending the contextual origins and receptions of texts in order to recover their historical meanings. But we understand ‘texts’ in the broadest sense, so as to encompass multiple forms of intellectual and cultural expression. These include, but are not limited to, political thought, philosophy, religion, literature, both the social sciences and the natural sciences, music, architecture, and the visual arts.
Each volume of Modern Intellectual History will consist of four fully open access issues, which will be published in March, June, September and December each year.
MIH adheres to a double-anonymous peer-reviewing policy for all articles, in which the identity of the reviewer and the author are concealed from both parties. In order to facilitate this process, contributors are asked to ensure that their article manuscripts are anonymous, with any information that might directly identify the author removed to the separate cover sheet.
Please consult the preparing your materials page for further information.
