JHR Call for Submissions

Dear ASHR members,

The Journal for the History of Rhetoric welcomes your submissions. The journal aims to promote rigorous research in the primary sources in both text and non-text media, while encouraging the exploration of new frames and methods; to engage with global rhetorical traditions and pivotal rhetorical events; to bring rhetorical histories to bear on present events; and to promote the study of rhetorical tools from diverse traditions as legitimate instruments of analysis. We accept traditional academic articles as well as discussion forums; in addition, the journal is inviting essays addressing issues in rhetorical history but written in historical rhetorical forms (for example, a progymnasma, a disputatio, an epistle, a sermon, an epideictic oration) as a way of demonstrating the viability of the historical forms.

Manuscripts are accepted through our submission platform; for questions, please email jhrjournal@gmail.com.
