York Medieval Press

York Medieval Press has a general list and also publishes five specialised series.

Health and Healing in the Middle Ages

Series Editor
Peregrine Horden (All Souls College, Oxford)
Sara Ritchey (The University of Tennessee, Knoxville)

Series Adviser
Linda Ehrsam Voigts (University of Missouri-Kansas City)
The subject matter of this series is interpreted broadly, from studies of health or palaeopathology at one end of the spectrum to a medical humanities approach to the history of healing at the other. It welcomes both monographs and focussed edited collections written in English, covering any centuries or geographical areas to which the term `medieval’ can be productively applied.

Enquiries about the series may be sent to Peregrine Horden ([email protected]), Sara Ritchey ([email protected]), and Linda Voigts ([email protected]). Book proposals should be supported by a one-page prospectus, a brief chapter outline, and a one-page curriculum vitae.

Heresy and Inquisition in the Middle Ages

Series Editors: John H. Arnold (Cambridge)
Peter Biller (York)
L.J. Sackville (York).

York Medieval Press had been an occasional publisher of books on the history of heresy and inquisition, such as Texts and the Repression of Medieval History, ed. Caterina Bruschi and Peter Biller, and Beverly Kienzle’s Cistercians, Heresy and Crusade in Occitania, 1145-1229. The original idea for a dedicated series came from Caroline Palmer at Boydell and Brewer in 2010, and the first volume was published in 2011, Lucy Sackville’s Heresy and Heretics in the Thirteenth Century: The Textual Representations. The series presents a wide range of work on medieval heresy and its repression, understood in broad terms, ranging from late antiquity to the end of the middle ages. It aims to bring important international scholarship to an Anglophone audience, and publishes a variety of monographs, edited collections, and translated materials.

The series editors invite serious scholarly contributions on any aspects of heresy and its repression, whether as monographs, collections of essays, or translations of primary sources.

York Medieval Press is pleased to launch a new series devoted to understanding the political culture medieval England, its structures, personalities, customs, conventions and beliefs. The first volume in the new series is Monarchy, State and Political Culture in Late Medieval England: Essays in Honour of W. Mark Ormrod, ed. Gwilym Dodd and Craig Taylor. This collection of essays, written by Ormrod’s former PhD students and research collaborators, encompasses political, administrative, legal, Church and social history, exploring three main themes: monarchy, state and political culture. They provide important insights into late medieval English history and fittingly reflect the cultural approach to political history and close archival work that he has espoused. The new series welcomes contributions in this vein in the form or monographs or edited collections from scholars across the full chronology of the Middle Ages.
