Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a peer-reviewed source?
No, this is not a peer-reviewed source. This is a volunteer journal. While articles are written by scholars, they do not undergo a peer-review process and therefore cannot be used as academic secondary sources.

How do I cite an article from Historically Modern?
Preferred citation:

Example:
Perry, Sarah. "Monster, Villain, Victim: The Villainization and Misappropriation of Marginalized Communities in the Gothic and Horror Genres." Historically Modern 1, no. 1 (2024).
