JAEMA Volume 16 – Digital Issue Available Now

Posted on by aemanewsletter

2020 has been a year of firsts within our discipline in many ways, and for AEMA this was no different as it culminated in the first themed issue of our association’s journal. The 16th volume of JAEMA presents new research by Polish scholars on the broad theme of the Christianisation of Europe. The articles included in this volume present interpretations deeply rooted in the Polish historiographic tradition. The editors hope that their publication in English will contribute to the growing body of knowledge on aspects of Christianisation processes experienced by European cultures and societies.

Volume 16 of JAEMA is now available to view and download online through our digital publishers, Informit. Each article and book review is available as an individual document, and the whole journal is also available to read as an epub.
