Aims & Scope

JWSFH embraces scholarship about France and the Francophone world that engages a wide variety of methodological and theoretical approaches and emerges from a range of disciplinary backgrounds. JWSFH publishes single and collectively authored article-length pieces (4000-6000 words) that deal with all periods and subject areas of French and Francophone history, as well as clusters of articles that speak to a common theme. Authors interested in submitting articles longer than 6000 words should reach out to the editors in advance.
