Call for Submissions: ‘Storytelling and the Middle Ages’, Trivent Publishing, deadline 1 May 2024

This series examines the cultural practice of storytelling in and about the Middle Ages. It aims at advancing our understanding of the art and practice of storytelling in the global Middle Ages in different languages and media. It places particular emphasis on the combination of narration and performance, and it extends its scope to include contemporary storytelling of medieval stories and themes. Moreover, the series invites contributions researching the stories we tell today about the Middle Ages, and so welcomes perspectives on medievalism and the ways our narratives about our cultural past connect with historical reality. The series welcomes a global perspective and a comparative point of view. The series invites proposals for monographs, edited collections and conference proceedings on all subjects related to storytelling in and about the Middle Ages.
