postmedieval is looking for guest editors to conceptualize, organize, and edit special issues focused on topics of the guest editors’ choosing. One person may act as a guest editor, though it often works better with two or three in a team. Special issues usually consist of 8 to 12 articles and an editorial introduction. Individual articles can be quite variable in length, usually falling between 3,500 and 8,000 words each. If your proposal is accepted, the editors will work with you to develop a timeline to publication.

There are no editorial costs involved, and the guest editors will have the support of the Co-Editors-in-Chief, the Managing Editor, the Palgrave Springer production team, and members of the Editorial Board. 

Proposed issues will be considered for publication in 2025 (with publication-ready articles due as early as fall 2024).
