Between Science and Magic. A special issue of Mirator
--------------------------------------------
CALL FOR PAPERS

This special issue stems from the Between Science and Magic Symposium, held 10-11 October 2024 at the University of Turku and jointly organized by the project TiTaRa: Between Science and Magic and the Finnish network of magic studies.

The special issue (Mirator 2/25) will explore the themes of the symposium and the TiTaRa project: the practices and worldviews of people operating between science and magic, as well as those engaging in practices of witchcraft and esotericism. The TiTaRa project explores questions of identity through English historical linguistics and book history, and the Between Science and Magic symposium’s papers dealt with a variety of materials and languages using methods ranging from folklore studies to archaeology.

Mirator (https://journal.fi/mirator) is a multilingual, peer reviewed open access journal published by Glossa, the Society for Medieval Studies in Finland. Mirator’s open access policy means that all texts published in the journal are freely available (to read, download, distribute, or link). The journal publishes texts in Finnish, Swedish, and English.
Submissions
We welcome submissions on all topics related to Western esotericism, magic, witchcraft, and early sciences bordering them such as astrology and alchemy. Submissions on the intersections of magic and science are especially welcome. The special issue will focus on the medieval period, but submissions related to the early modern period will be considered as well. While the special issue is related to the Between Science and Magic Symposium, we welcome article proposals by non-participants as well.

Please send a 250-word abstract and a brief biographical statement by 30 November 2024 to idwira at utu.fi. Submitted manuscripts must comply with the journal’s author guidelines (https://journal.fi/mirator/about/submissions) and will be subject to a double-blind peer review.
