NMS welcomes submissions dealing with all aspects of the Middle Ages, from the late antique period to the Reformation. The main language of the journal is English, but work in French or German can also be accepted. Papers can be of any length between 4000 and 15000 words, inclusive of references, though occasionally longer pieces can be considered; papers consisting of or including editions of short texts are welcomed. Submissions are double-blind peer-reviewed. In preparing manuscripts for review, authors should avoid revealing their identity within their essays and should follow the Author Guidelines available on this webpage (or upon request from the editors or publishing manager). NMS also publishes book reviews.

Peer Review Procedure
Each article is read double-blind by at least one, but normally by two external specialists chosen by the editors; in choosing readers the editors take the advice of members of the editorial board as appropriate. Articles may be read by members of the editorial board as well as by external specialists.
