Since its inception in 1940, the Journal of the History of Ideas has served as a medium for the publication of research in intellectual history that is of common interest to scholars and students in a wide range of fields. It is committed to encouraging diversity in regional coverage, chronological range, and methodological approaches. JHI defines intellectual history expansively and ecumenically, including the histories of philosophy, of literature and the arts, of the natural and social sciences, of religion, and of political thought. It also encourages scholarship at the intersections of cultural and intellectual history — for example, the history of the book and of visual culture. New Author Guide: Online Submission The Journal of the History of Ideas now accepts and reviews manuscripts online. Login to Editorial Manager.. Please see the revised Author Guide for more details. Forkosch Prize The Journal of the History of Ideas awards each year the Morris D. Forkosch Prize ($2000) in intellectual history. Submissions must be limited to the first book published by any author, and to books published in English, pertaining to one or more of the disciplines associated with intellectual history and the history of ideas broadly conceived: viz., history (including the histories of the various arts and sciences); philosophy (including the philosophy of science, aesthetics, and other fields); political thought; the social sciences (including anthropology, economics, political science, and sociology); and literature (including literary criticism, history and theory). No translations or collections of essays will be considered. The judges will favor publications displaying sound scholarship, original conceptualization, and significant chronological and interdisciplinary scope. The Journal of the History of Ideas is pleased to announce that the deadline for the 2008 Forkosch Prize competition has been extended to June 30, 2009. The deadline for the competition for books published in 2009 will be January 31, 2010.
