Editor's Column: In Medias Res

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  23 October 2020

Extract

What have i learned during my year and a half as editor of PMLA? Now, at the midpoint of my term, I thought I might reflect on some of my hopes and hesitations about the editorship and think about what, from the submissions to PMLA and from the process of its publication, we might glean about important trends in literary studies and the humanities more broadly. Two things have delighted and frustrated me, in particular: the workings of the peer review process, on the one hand, and the disciplinary and subdisciplinary boundaries that inform our writing and teaching, on the other. On these issues and on their relation, I have some good news and some less good news to report.
