Renaissance Text Series

Renaissance Text Series (RTS) includes editions and translations of Renaissance Latin, Greek, and Hebrew texts; bibliographical tools; and special purpose volumes. RTS volumes are now published by Brill. Past volumes have been published by Medieval and Renaissance Texts and Studies (MRTS); RSA members receive a 20% discount.

RSA is pleased to announce its partnership with Brill in renewing its commitment to the Renaissance Text Series. RTS will continue to publish works that make a significant scholarly contribution to Renaissance Studies. In particular, this series will consider works whose scholarly apparatus or other features render them difficult to publish with a university press, but for which a published, printed volume is the appropriate medium. Examples include editions and translations of Renaissance Latin, Greek, and Hebrew texts; bibliographical tools; and special purpose volumes.

Please contact the series editor, Craig Kallendorf, with your proposal before submitting a manuscript.
