The editors and the board welcome submissions of scholarly and critical essays on any subject, using any convincing method, as long as they contribute to our understanding of the literature, history, and culture in the Anglophone world, 1660-1700, or the adjacent periods. We also welcome essays tracing the persistence of Restoration texts, ideas, and culture through subsequent periods and into our current moment, as well as essays on pedagogical approaches to teaching material from the Restoration period.
While preferring essays of 5000-7500 words (including notes), the editorial board will evaluate essays of any length. Restoration encourages submissions from scholars at any career stage, with or without university affiliation.
Manuscripts should conform to the latest University of Chicago style, be double-spaced throughout, and avoid authorial self-reference, and be prefaced by a 200-300 word abstract. Our review process is doubly anonymized.
Please submit all manuscripts and abstracts electronically to:
