Military History Carnival posted
The 14th Military History Carnival (special Contested Boundaries edition) is now up at Investigations of a Dog.
CFP: Carnivalesque (ancient/medieval)
The next edition of Carnivalesque will be for everything ancient and medieval, at A Corner of Tenth-Century Europe on or about 18 May 2008. Email Jonathan Jarrett at jaj20[AT]cam[DOT]ac[DOT]uk or use the submission form.
Call for Submissions: Military History Carnival
The 14th Military History Carnival will be held at Investigations of a Dog next week on Thursday 15th May. We still need more submissions: you can submit your own posts or someone else’s, relating to the Contested Boundaries theme or anything else within MHC’s usual remit. Please e-mail submissions to fallon.young@4-lom.com or use the the submission form.
More details of the Contested Boundaries theme:
This can cover disputed territories and borders, which are a big part of many wars. It can also cover cultural boundaries. How does war complicate, question or shift the boundaries between races, genders, classes, and sexual orientations, between able and disabled, or between human and animal? Above all, how is the boundary between war and peace constructed and contested? Just use your imagination.
You can submit your own posts or posts written by someone else. If you feel inspired to write something on this theme, then go for it. Considering the number of submissions we normally get it’s unlikely that your post will be rejected unless it’s outside the scope of the carnival or fails to meet basic standards of factual accuracy. Submissions don’t have to be limited to the theme. As usual, anything about armed forces and conflicts in any part of the world is eligible. Only wars that happened after 1 January 2001 are excluded. See the Military History Carnival page for more details of the carnival’s aims and scope.

The 64th History Carnival is up at Bay Radical - a special May Day edition!
We have a host lined up for 1 June, but no one after that. If you don't want the History Carnival to take a summer hiatus, get in touch with me now (sharon@earlymodernweb.org.uk).
CFP: Military History Carnival special edition
The next edition of the Military History Carnival will be at Investigations of a Dog on Thursday 15th May. As always we need as many submissions as possible. To make it more interesting I’ve decided to give this edition a special theme: Contested Boundaries.
This can cover disputed territories and borders, which are a big part of many wars. It can also cover cultural boundaries. How does war complicate, question or shift the boundaries between races, genders, classes, and sexual orientations, between able and disabled, or between human and animal? Above all, how is the boundary between war and peace constructed and contested? Just use your imagination.

If this is a success there might be more themed editions in future.

The History Carnival has only one more host currently lined up, for the June edition. If you would be interested in hosting an edition from July onwards, please get in touch with me sharon[at]earlymodernweb[dot]org[dot]uk. If I don't get any volunteers, the Carnival will be taking a summer break...
Military History Carnival posted
The 13th Military History Carnival is now up at The Cannon’s Mouth. In this case 13 isn’t unlucky at all as Ken has done an excellent job.
The next edition will be coming home to Investigations of a Dog on 15th May. This is a special edition with a theme of Contested Boundaries. As well as territorial disputes, we’d like to see posts about how war complicates boundaries of race, class, gender, sexuality, species etc. Above all we want to question the boundary between peace and war. If you see anything on these themes, please submit it. Or you could even write something if you feel inspired.
Submissions don’t have to be on these themes - you can still submit posts about any aspect of military history, war and armed forces. The usual limits apply: posts mainly about wars that happened after 1 January 2001 are not eligible.
E-mail submissions to fallon.young@4-lom.com or use the the submission form.
And we still need hosts for June and July - I’m not doing it two months in a row! If you’d like to try hosting please get in touch by leaving a comment on the MHC page or use this mailform.
New Editions: Genealogy and Indian History
Carnival of Genealogy and Indian History Carnival
I'll try to be a bit more timely about posting these, though if someone from these carnivals wants to take over their own publicity here, I'll sign 'em up!
CFP: Carnivalesque
The next edition of Carnivalesque will be for all things early modern, on 20 April at Walking the Berkshires, hosted by Tim Abbott.
Send nominations to greensleevesenviro[AT]sbcglobal[DOT]net or use the submission form.
Military History Carnival: Call for Posts and Hosts
The next Military History Carnival will be at The Cannon’s Mouth on Thursday 17th April. E-mail submissions to militaryhistorian at gmail dot com or use the submission form. Anything vaguely related to wars and armed forces before 1 January 2001 can be included.
Then we need more hosts, especially for May. If you have a blog (it doesn’t have to be about military history) and you’re interested in giving it a go please leave a comment over at Investigations of a Dog or email saber at 4-lom dot com. The carnival usually takes place around the middle of the month but the exact date is up to the host. See here for more details of hosting.
