Pierre-Emmanuel Dupont has recently launched a new journal called Orientalia Antiqua et Nova.
Unfortunately, the journal does not seem to be open-access, but see Orientalia Antiqua et Nova, vol.1/2024, for the first issue.
Orientalia Antiqua et Novais a new pluridisciplinary, independent academic journal devoted to the Orient in a broad sense, encompassing a wide geographical area of investigation, substantially coextensive to the empire of Alexander the Great at its height or, later on, to the regions which at one point or another in history have found themselves included in the spheres of civilisation of either Islam or Byzantium. Its ambition is to propose a different look – made in particular of appropriate distancing and understanding vis-à-vis the perceptions and identities of local actors – at both the ancient and modern history of the Middle East and Central Asia including, but not limited to, archaeology, art history, religion, philosophy and literature, and at the current regional developments in international relations, culture and society. One volume of the journal is published annually (the first annual volume of the review is expected to be published in 2024). All contributions are subject to peer-review.
