Galileana seeks proposals for themed issues led by a guest editor (or guest editors). Any theme that falls within the broad field of Renaissance and early modern science, including the history of medicine and the history of technology, is acceptable.

Twenty years after its first issue (2004), Galilæana changes its look and format. It will no longer be a paper journal and will be released online in open access format.

Galilæana, issue 2-2023. Call for abstracts.

2023 marks the four-hundredth anniversary of the publication of Galileo Galilei’s Il Saggiatore (The
Assayer). Many aspects of this volume remain understudied or need to be reconsidered in light of recent research. In order to reignite the study of Galileo’s complex work, the journal Galilaeana: Studies in Renaissance and Early Modern Science invites article proposals for a monograph issue on Il Saggiatore and its legacies

Galilæana, issue 1-2024. Call for papers.

The aim of this call is to draw attention to two specific issues of historical, literary, and philosophical research. On the one hand, the objective is to explore how Galileo considered and used literature; on the other, to observe how past and current writers and intellectuals have tested and enriched their knowledge with Galileo’s teachings.
