postmedieval publishes people. Put differently, postmedieval does not publish works that have been written with the assistance of generative artificial intelligence. This declaration does not apply to the use of basic tools for checking grammar, spelling, or formatting references. We are committed to developmental editing, helping authors publish their best work in English. We also find that AI editing tools often make things worse: flat, boring, obscure, and clunky. We would rather work with your own, human-generated prose.

Please indicate in a cover letter to the editors whether or not any generative AI-related software was used in the completion of this manuscript. If such software was used, specify clearly how the software was employed, which parts of the manuscript are affected, and how the AI-generated content relates to the manuscript, its images (if any), and its findings.
