Call for Submissions:
TUFTS HISTORICAL REVIEW
Tufts Historical Review Volume XII: Muses
Deadline: 31 January 2019
The Tufts Historical Review Editorial Board is delighted to announce a call for submissions to Volume XII of the Tufts Historical Review, an academic journal of global history that seeks both undergraduate and graduate papers of the highest caliber.
Theme
This year, the theme of our journal is Muses.
As a source of inspiration or an undirected wondering, great thinkers, creators, and innovators have encouraged people in amazing ways. The nine muses of classical mythology represented ingenuity and discovery. Following their specialities of poetry, music, history, astronomy, comedy, and dance, people have produced magnificent works through a spark of inspiration in their honor.
Throughout history people have been inspired by the muses and by a variety of other means. The westward expansion of the United States was believed to stem from the higher calling of manifest destiny. Frida Kahlo used the experiences of her life to be her own muse. Philosophers like Hesiod and Sartre pondered the questions of the universe in an aimless manner that yielded entirely new fields of thought and manners of thinking. Divine inspiration exhorted Mansa Musa to undertake a pilgrimage in such ostentatious style that he lowered the global price of gold. Inspiration in the form of the disciplined way of the samurai, bushido, encouraged Tokugawa Ieyasu to unite Japan in the 17th century.
The development of humanity is a story of extraordinary accomplishments by remarkable people. Behind every one of those people is a source of inspiration, be it religious, political, or personal. Every story has its muse.
These are just a few examples. The Editorial Board seeks outstanding articles – between 2,500 and 8,000 words – that explore our theme from a diverse array of perspectives.
Submissions are due by 31 January 2019, and should be submitted to [email protected].
Criteria
The Tufts Historical Review is committed to publishing the finest undergraduate and graduate historical research. As such, we require that all submissions subscribe to the highest standards of academic quality. Failure to comply with the following requirements may result in the rejection of a submission.
• All submissions must be cited in accordance with the Chicago Manual of Style, 17th Edition.
• No submissions that have previously appeared in another publication will be considered eligible.

• Applicant’s information should only appear on the cover page.
• Submissions should range between 2,500 and 8,000 words. Longer submissions are acceptable, but will be subject to editing for purposes of brevity, if selected.
• Submissions from both undergraduate (B.A.) and graduate (M.A., PhD.) students are welcomed.
• Please note that submissions need not explicitly reference the word “muses” to be eligible for consideration. We encourage novel treatments of the theme!

Call for Articles for a new journal:
The Journal of Applied History
Type: Journal
Subject Fields:
African History / Studies, American History / Studies, Asian History / Studies,
Contemporary History, Humanities
This year, Brill has launched a new, interdisciplinary and peer-reviewed scholarly journal concerned with the application of historical knowledge and insights to current matters: the Journal of Applied History (https://brill.com/view/journals/joah/joah-overview.xml)
Unlike other journals, the Journal of Applied History offers a platform for articles in which the results of historical research are applied to present-day issues. By connecting historical case studies to contemporary concerns and (or) future possibilities, authors are asked to make an explicit connection between past, present and future.
As such the Journal of Applied History seeks to promote long-term thinking when considering the causes and implications of present affairs and issues. The journal, which is published biannually, seeks to inform scholars and policy makers interested in connecting past and present through publishing relatively short articles of approximately 4,000 words.
We encourage contributions from specialists in all branches of the humanities and social sciences who adopt a historical approach: from historians and anthropologists, to political scientists and sociologists, and from experts in the history of antiquity to those working on the very recent past, thus bringing together long-term perspectives and various approaches and methodologies.
Should you have any questions, feel free to get in touch with one of the editors-in-chief: Harm Kaal ([email protected]) or Jelle van Lottum ([email protected]).
