Ipazia Books Editions - March 09, 2026

Ipazia Books Editions is a new English-language journal devoted to philosophy, history, scientific inquiry, literary criticism, research, and current affairs. Rooted in a commitment to intellectual rigor and breadth of thought, the journal seeks to foster meaningful dialogue across disciplines — bridging the humanities and the sciences, the historical and the contemporary, the theoretical and the applied. While the site maintains a natural affinity with the Ipazia Books publishing house and therefore gives particular prominence to the work of its authors, the journal is by no means a closed forum. On the contrary, it warmly welcomes outstanding essays, critical reflections, and scholarly contributions from external writers, as well as thoughtful reviews of noteworthy works published elsewhere. Quality and intellectual substance remain the sole criteria for selection. Ipazia Books Editions aspires to be more than a house organ — it aims to be a vital space for serious ideas, where established voices and emerging thinkers alike can engage with the questions that matter most. Submissions: Writers wishing to submit articles, essays, or reviews are invited to do so by writing to: info at ipaziabooks dot com. All submissions will be carefully considered by the editorial team.
