Review Essays​​

The ​​​Berlin Historical Review also welcomes review essays whi​​ch discuss a particular subject from a macroscopic point of view. Surveying developments in an area of study and synthesising important ideas, review essays generally deal with a number of recent works on a specific topic or theme. Reviewers​​ ​​​should try to raise key issues for future scholarship and may choose to write with a greater perspective in mind when analysing ​​the review book(s) with regard to the larger underlying discourse.​​ We are pleased to receive suggestions or proposals at any time.​​​

Word Limit

Reviews essays should be of approximately 4000-5000 words in length. Please remember to include author, title, date, publisher, number of pages, cost and ISBN of the review book(s), as well as any references cited in the text.
