We are delighted to share that from 2027, the book series 'Medium Ævum Monographs' of the Society for the Study of Medieval Languages and Literature will be published by Brepols.

Dr Anthony Lappin (Stockholm University) shall continue in his current role as lead editor, and will be joined by Drs. Yun Ni (Peking University) and Justin Willson (Yale University).

President of SSMLL Professor Alastair Minnis writes:

'The intellectual values of our monograph series, and indeed of SSMLL at large, align perfectly with those of this press: we promote the scholarly interests and skills necessary for study of the production transmission and cultural reception of texts in their several medieval languages, ensuring they are placed clearly in the historical contexts that gave them meaning.'

Since 1932, the Society for the Study of Medieval Languages and Literature has existed to encourage and disseminate research on medieval languages and literature to scholarly communities and the wider public.

Medium Ævum Monographs have been publishing research on a wide range of topics relating to the literatures and languages of the Middle Ages since 1936. The series accommodates monographs by single or several authors, essay-collections, and editions of texts both large and small. Its objective is to encourage the scholarly interests and skills necessary for study of the production, transmission and cultural reception of texts in their several medieval languages, to ensure they are placed clearly in the historical and linguistic contexts that gave them meaning. A special feature is the nurturing of young talent: in-depth guidance is given to early-career researchers at all steps of the publication process. The languages covered thus far comprise Latin and the various medieval forms of English (both Old and Middle), French (including the French of England), German, Gothic, Icelandic, Portuguese, Spanish, and Welsh.
