The English Historical Review is a peer-reviewed, academic journal established in 1886 and published by Oxford University Press. It publishes articles on British, European, and world history since the classical era. It is the oldest surviving English language academic journal in the field of history.

Issues include Articles, ‘Notes and Documents’, and Debates on medieval and modern themes, as well as a large range of Reviews of books on history published throughout the world. A summary of international periodical literature published in the previous twelve months is also provided.[1]

The journal was established in 1886 by John Dalberg-Acton, 1st Baron Acton, Regius professor of modern history at Cambridge, and a fellow of All Souls College, Oxford.[2] The first editor was Mandell Creighton. The current editors are Professor Martin Conway, Dr Catherine Holmes, and Professor Peter Marshall.[3]
