History Today accepts submissions for articles for inclusion in the magazine. Submissions should be original, exclusive to History Today and offer an engaging and authoritative take on a historical subject.
Prospective contributors should look through our online archive to ensure the proposal or subject area hasn't been written about recently.
The magazine carries two types of article:
- Feature-length articles, which are between 3,000 and 3,400 words;
- History Matters articles, broadly a range of polemics and short articles, of 1,000 words.
Please send a brief email about your proposal, along with a few lines about your career / academic background, to:
Unfortunately we are unable to respond to all submissions.
