I am passing on this announcement about a new journal, published by Brill and edited by Asad Q. Ahmed, Abhishek Kaicker, and Lawrence McCrea, that will be launched later this year. Please consider contributing if you work on topics of intellectual history, and please do let your colleagues know. The guidelines for authors are available upon request from the e-mail listed below.
The Journal of South Asian Intellectual History (SAIH) is dedicated to the study of the history of ideas in pre-modern and early modern South Asia. The main concern of the publication is to advance philological and historical research into the rich intellectual history of South Asia in fields such as (but not limited to) philosophy, logic, astronomy, medicine, mathematics, literature, philosophical theology, and mystical traditions. Sources of such investigations may be produced in any of the languages of South Asia, including, for example, Sanskrit, Urdu, Persian, Gujarati, Malayalam, Kannada, and Arabic. Given the nature of intellectual interactions in pre-modern and early modern South Asia, the Journal also welcomes articles, written in English, working across various disciplinary boundaries and languages.
