Call for Papers for The Long Middle Ages (A New Seminar Series Hosted at the University of Leeds)
We are excited to announce a new interdisciplinary seminar series for postgraduate students and early career researchers on the Long Middle Ages, a period covering the Late Antique, Medieval, and Early Modern Periods. This series aims to bring together scholars working across this period to establish new connectivity and inclusivity between these disciplines, and to provide a more relaxed space for new and emerging researchers to present and test out ideas.
We welcome submissions of 20-30 minute papers from postgraduates and early career researchers working in any discipline and on any topic related to the late antique, medieval and early modern periods. Papers will be followed by time for questions and further discussion.
Seminars will commence in early 2026 and run on a regular basis until summer. If you are interested in presenting a seminar, please send an abstract of no more than 250 words as well as a short biography to the organisers at thelongm...@gmail.com by Friday 28th November 2025.
All seminars will take place at the University of Leeds in a hybrid format, with fully online formats available upon request. Please provide your preference in your submission. If you have any further questions, please do get in touch!
