Neues Open-Access-Journal gegründet!
Jakob Riemenschneider befindet sich mit weiteren jungen Wissenschaftler*innen (z.B. Michael Eber, ebenfalls mit Innsbrucker Vergangenheit) im Editorial Board der Zeitschrift Essays in Long Late Antiquity (ELLA).

Essays in Long Late Antiquity (ELLA) is a newly-created Open Access journal which positions itself in the field of first millennium studies. It is a field which has seen growth in recent years and has an established momentum. The journal intends to move away from the Western European view of periodization, a view which the editors hope will entice interdisciplinary and supraregional approaches. Therefore, the journal hopes to cover the 2nd to the 9th centuries (100 – 800) and the broader Afroeurasia in its research and to stand apart from discipline siloing.
It intends to act as a place for those in history, archaeology, art history, and philology and foster an exchange between researchers often separated, offering them the chance to publish shorter essays alongside the traditional journal article.
The first issue will appear in Spring 2026.
