Korean Histories invites submissions for issue 5.2. The journal welcomes original research articles, translations with commentary, and review essays engaging with the broad field of Korean historiography understood as a social practice.
Korean Histories is rooted in the conviction that academic historians are players in a wider social field of meaning-making. Representations of the Korean past take shape in popular culture and political discourse, in school textbooks and exile literature, in monuments and internet forums, and among amateur historians and online communities. The journal takes all of these seriously. At the same time, it remains committed to methodological rigour, careful engagement with sources, and the critical distinctions between empirically verifiable fact, reasonable supposition, and speculation. The journal is interested both in narratives encompassing eras and philological inquiry happening at the level of the squared inch.
Articles should be between 8,000 and 12,000 words (including notes and references), but may be longer if the subject demands it. Translations with commentary and review essays may vary in length. All submissions undergo double-blind peer review.
Manuscripts should be submitted electronically as Microsoft Word documents to a.m.van.de.pol@hum.leidenuniv.nl.
