Contributions are invited from Australian and New Zealand postgraduate students in history for publication in Melbourne Historical Journal Volume 40, 2012.

Published since 1961, Melbourne Historical Journal (MHJ) is a refereed journal for the publication of Australian and Aotearoa/New Zealand postgraduate work in all aspects of history. It is open to new approaches and aims to present original postgraduate work to a wide readership. Postgraduate articles on any historical topic will be considered for publication.

In addition, every article submitted to MHJ is eligible for the Greg Dening Memorial Prize. Details of the prize can be found on the MHJ website: http://history.unimelb.edu.au/mhj/prizes.html. Journal articles should be between 5000-7000 words and constitute an original piece of research. Manuscripts should not be under review or scheduled for publication by any other journal, and should be substantially different from other published work.
