The Center for Early Modern History promotes scholarly inquiry into the interchange of peoples, goods, and ideas that marks the first era of global contacts, ca. 1300-1800. Since its founding, the Center has drawn on the talents of faculty and students from a variety of disciplines, with interests in many parts of the world, for a vibrant program of intellectual exchange.

Journal of Early Modern History

Established in 1996, the Journal of Early Modern History: Contacts, Comparisons, Contrasts (JEMH) is now the official journal of the Center for Early Modern History. It is the first scholarly journal dedicated to the study of early modernity from a world-historical perspective, whether through explicitly comparative studies, or by the grouping of studies around a given thematic, chronological, or geographic frame. JEMH aims not so much for programmatic statements that claim to set research agendas, but for specialized research that bears explicitly on larger issues. The Journal was founded by Heiko A. Oberman (University of Arizona), James D. Tracy (University of Minnesota), and Antony Black (University of Dundee), in cooperation with E.J. Brill Academic Publishers. It is currently edited by Giancarlo Casale and Nabil Matar at the University of Minnesota and Simon Ditchfield at the University of York. JEMH appears six times a year, and its editors invite submissions both of individual articles and of proposals for special editions (which may appear up to twice a year). For more information, consult the online "Instructions for Authors" page at brill.nl/jemh or contact the Journal at jemh@umn.edu The Journal of Early Modern History is distributed by Brill and is available online at IngentaConnect.
