Call for Contributions: Proposed Routledge History of Monarchy The Royal Studies Network is collaborating with Routledge to develop a comprehensive history of Monarchy for their Histories series (https://www.routledge.com/series/RHISTS). The proposed volume is intending to look at the institution of monarchy as a whole, across ALL periods and places. The final work will feature between 25-40 contributors, will be approximately 200,000-250,000 words and length and may be grouped into three thematic sections: Kingship, Queenship and Dynasty. If you would like to propose a contribution, send a 250-500 word abstract of your intended piece. Please note that rather than an overview history of the monarchy of a particular realm, contributions should look at a particular ASPECT of monarchy. Case studies (one or more) could be used to highlight this aspect. For example you could look at 'Female succession in the Kingdom of Jerusalem' or 'Kingship and Masculinity in the Moghul Empire'. Comparative pieces are also welcome such as 'The impact of consanguinity in the Hapsburg and Saxe-Coburg dynasties'. Please send queries and proposals to [email protected] Deadline for proposals: 1 December 2015.

Call for Contributions: Proposed Routledge History of Monarchy

The Royal Studies Network is collaborating with Routledge to develop a

comprehensive history of Monarchy for their Histories series

(https://www.routledge.com/series/RHISTS). The proposed volume is

intending to look at the institution of monarchy as a whole, across ALL

periods and places. The final work will feature between 25-40 contributors,

will be approximately 200,000-250,000 words and length and may be

grouped into three thematic sections: Kingship, Queenship and Dynasty.

If you would like to propose a contribution, send a 250-500 word abstract

of your intended piece. Please note that rather than an overview history of

the monarchy of a particular realm, contributions should look at a particular

ASPECT of monarchy. Case studies (one or more) could be used to highlight

this aspect. For example you could look at 'Female succession in the

Kingdom of Jerusalem' or 'Kingship and Masculinity in the Moghul Empire'.

Comparative pieces are also welcome such as 'The impact of consanguinity

in the Hapsburg and Saxe-Coburg dynasties'.
