Medium Ævum Monographs have been publishing research on a wide range of topics relating to the literatures and languages of the Middle Ages since 1936. The series accommodates monographs by single or several authors, essay-collections, and editions of texts both large and small. Its objective is to encourage the scholarly interests and skills necessary for study of the production, transmission and cultural reception of texts in their several medieval languages, to ensure they are placed clearly in the historical and linguistic contexts that gave them meaning. A special feature is the nurturing of young talent: in-depth guidance is given to early-career researchers at all steps of the publication process. The length of a monograph has ranged from around 100 published pages to over 250, depending on the needs of the topic. The languages covered thus far comprise Latin and the various medieval forms of English (both Old and Middle), French (including the French of England), German, Gothic, Icelandic, Portuguese, Spanish, and Welsh. We are also able to publish materials written in Arabic, Greek and Hebrew.
