I’ll just add my voice to the chorus: Hallelujah!

I’d just like to join the chorus.  I was one of those asked by Chicago whether their publishing Spenser Studies would be a good idea.  You can imagine the enthusiasm (with evidence offered) of my reply!  Here’s to many more years of high quality publishing.

Judith

Bill, Andrew, and Susannah,

Having just learned that our volumes of Spenser Studies have wandered Redcrosse-like to an off-campus storage cave—making room for our library’s new learning commons--I (together with my students) am very grateful.

Just wonderful, and not least the putting online. Great! Whew. A great publisher.

[Dear all, Bill Oram has asked me to forward this announcement to the list. - A.Z.]

 

It may be of interest to the list that Spenser Studies will now be published by the University of Chicago Press.

 

For the last twenty-five years we have been published by AMS Press, a for-profit company, which produced good volumes, but which was reluctant to commit to internet publication.  Because of this unwillingness we were prepared to leave AMS, but events overtook us, and in March the Press declared bankruptcy. 

 

Several presses then declared their interest in Spenser Studies, and we are very happy to announce that Chicago will include us among their Renaissance journals.  We are all the more pleased that Chicago has gained the right to make essays from earlier volumes (most of which are now available only in print editions) available electronically. 

 

Spenser Studies will appear both online and in the traditional hardcover print editions, starting in February 2018, when Chicago will produce a double volume to make up for time lost during the change in publishers.  This will consist of volume 31 (scheduled originally to be published in early 2017) and volume 32 (with essays drawn from the Dublin conference).
