Medieval Warfare is published every two months, and consists of ten or more articles in each issue. We have a theme for each issue, and most of the articles will be devoted to that area. Additionally, every issue will also feature pieces on other aspects of medieval military history, so that our readers can have a diverse experience.

Generally, we reach out to historians and scholars to write articles for our themes, but we do accept contributions, especially from people who are doing current research in the field. Moreover, we publish several non-theme articles each issue, and welcome submissions about topics related to the Middle Ages. We encourage early career scholars (recent PhDs and graduate students) to contact us and let us know about their research.

If you are interested in writing for our magazine, please contact the editor.
