The Journal of Browning Studies, the successor to Browning Society Notes (33 vols, 1969-2008), invites contributions on all subjects connected with the life and work of Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning and their circle. The new journal, which will appear annually, is intended to become the natural home for critical and scholarly work on the poets. As well as articles and reviews, it will also include a ‘Brownings Notes and Queries’ section correcting or supplementing existing scholarly and biographical information on the poets. JBS is accessible electronically via LION (Literature Online).
