Series Spotlight: Central European Medieval Texts (CEMT)

In episode 5 of the CEU Press Podcast Series we sat down with Professor Gábor Klaniczay from the CEU’s Department of Medieval Studies to discuss one of CEU Press’s longest running series, Central European Medieval Texts (CEMT) and his new edited volume within this series, entitled The Sanctity of the Leaders.  

The CEMT series presents the best available critical editions of the original versions of medieval Central and Easter European texts in English-Latin bilingual editions with extensive annotations for readers less familiar with the history and geography of the region.

The new edition in the series, The Sanctity of the Leaders, presents the vita of the Hungarian holy kings Stephen and St Ladislaus, the Bohemian holy duke Emeric and the holy Abbott Prokop of Sázava alongside three bishops: the Venetian-Hungarian Gellért of Csanád, the Polish Stanislas of Cracow, and the Dalmatian holy bishop St John of Trogir.

The CEU Press Podcast Series delves into various aspects of the publishing process: from crafting a book proposal, finding a publisher, responding to peer review feedback on the manuscript, to the subsequent distribution, promotion and marketing of academic books. We will also talk to series editors and authors, who will share their experiences of getting published and talk about their series or books.
