Reviewing Information
EMLS invites reviews of recent scholarly
works--critical editions, commentaries, and theoretical,
historical, literary, or interdisciplinary criticism which
centres on sixteenth- or seventeenth-century English or related
literary culture. We also encourage reports of all resources
which are relevant to literary studies of the period, including
those available exclusively in the electronic medium.
Our aim is to publish reviews of a consistently high standard,
which are both engaging and critically fair, written by a broad
range of people at different stages of their academic careers
with varied disciplinary backgrounds.
Requests to review books listed below, or proposals for
reviews of other new titles, together with a brief description of
reviewers' academic qualifications, publications or research
interests should be sent to the Review Editor at
Review_Editor_EMLS@arts.ubc.ca.
