Renaissance Drama Journal

Submissions for Volume 39 of Renaissance Drama are now being accepted!

Renaissance Drama is an annual publication. Occasionally special issues of the journal are devoted to specific topics of general interest. Volumes 39 and 40 are planned as open topic volumes.

While we are happy to accept submissions at any time, Volume 39 will go to press in October, and so submissions should reach us by June in order to ensure a reading. Later submissions will be considered for publication in subsequent volumes.

Renaissance Drama invites articles that investigate traditional canons of drama, as well as those that explore the significance of performance, broadly construed, in early modern cultures. We particularly welcome essays that question or apply of newer forms of interpretation on the study of early modern plays, theater, and performance; that concern works written in traditions other than the English (although we can only publish essays in English); the discourses that shaped and were shaped by the varied institutions of drama across Europe and beyond its borders within which it was produced; and manifestations of performance and performativity both on and off the theatrical stage.

Renaissance Drama prefers to receive manuscript submissions electronically, either as a Rich Text Format file (.rtf) or as a Microsoft Word file (.doc). Scholars preparing manuscripts for Renaissance Drama should refer to the stylistic guidelines of The Chicago Manual of Style (14th edition), including endnote reference citations. Queries and submissions should be addressed to Nathan Mead at n-mead2 [at] northwestern.edu
