Journal

The open-access journal Manuscript and Text Cultures is initiated by CMTC with a mission to encourage and disseminate innovative research in pre-modern manuscript and epigraphic cultures. In addition to specialized issues led by a separate team of guest editors, the Journal welcomes submissions from scholars involved in innovative research on any area of pre-modern textual, manuscript, or epigraphic studies. The editors are particularly interested in new approaches to digital presentation of research, and prospective authors are encouraged to get in touch with the Production Editor to discuss specific ideas related to the presentation of their research material.
