Brief Chronicles: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Authorship Studies

A peer-reviewed interdisciplinary publication, Brief Chronicles is overseen by an Editorial Board comprised of academicians with terminal degrees and distinguished records of scholarship and teaching. The journal publishes research-based notes, articles, and monographs, as well as essays and reviews of books, theater productions, and movies based on the drama and literature of the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods.

We solicit relevant original scholarship and essays that shed critical light on the Shakespeare canon and its authorship--particularly those written from an informed Oxfordian perspective--on theories and problems in the study of early modern authorship and literary creativity, and on related questions of early modern literary culture, aesthetics, bibliography, psychology, law, linguistics, biography, and history.

Contributions utilizing an interdisciplinary methodology that draws on the conventions and data of more than one relevant humanities discipline to produce original, carefully reasoned and readable insights, are especially welcome.
