The Transactions of the Royal Historical Society is the flagship journal of the Royal Historical Society (RHS).  It has been publishing the highest quality scholarship in history for over 150 years.  The journal welcomes submissions dealing with any geographical area from the early middle ages to the very recent past, and is interested in articles that cover entirely new ground, thematically or methodologically, as well as those that engage critically on established themes in existing literatures.  Alongside research articles, contributions that engage with pedagogy and key issues facing the profession are welcomed. In line with the RHS’s commitment to supporting postgraduate and early career historians, the journal encourages submissions from younger scholars and seeks to engage constructively and positively with new authors.
