The aim of these reviews is twofold. Under English CQ will publish four reviews a year, of both current and classics works of criticism, intended to provide authoritative points of entry to the full range of English criticism divided into four periods:
Medieval (edited by Kellie Robertson, University of Pittsburgh), From Wyatt to Johnson (edited by Margaret W.Ferguson, University of California at Davis), Victorians and Romantics (edited by Stephen Heath, Jesus College, Cambridge) and Modernism and after (edited by Maud Ellmann, University of Notre Dame).
Under Across the Disciplines CQ will publish reviews which will introduce non-specialists to debates and developments across the range of the major disciplines. Our hope is that we will gradually assemble a growing set of writings that will allow non-specialist readers to introduce themselves to recent questions in any of the given disciplines.
Each subject is the responsibility of a single editor of international standing who will choose each year the book or books, article or articles, current or classic which most illuminate the current state of the subject. The reviews are under 2,000 words in length and include some suggestions for further reading. The first two reviews, chosen for their disciplinary centrality are Classics (edited by Richard Seaford, University of Exeter ) and Philosophy of Science (edited by John Dupre, University of Exeter ).
