The Spenser Review seems to be offline. Is it me, or can anyone else bring it up?
I have to say (apropos of recent posts) that I miss the physical presence of SR, and have not heard any options of getting an annual volume via print. As others have noted, I don't read the notices, abstracts, and reviews online with the same attention to detail as I did in the old print copies, mainly because the physical copies carried a real presence on the shelf/desk, and could be picked up and reread many times. A real loss, it seems to me, an example of technology making us less connected substantively to each other's work. To say nothing of only having $100 hardback copies of Spenser Studies available (there, I said it). Could not AMS be prevailed upon to issue softcover versions of the 2010 volume in 2011 or '12? It would be different if Spenser Studies were available online, but until (or if) it (ever) is, its desired market is prohibitively priced out, a scholarly loss to us and a modest financial opportunity to AMS wasted, it would seem to me.
What gives?
