Manuscript Editing for Nineteenth-Century Literature Journal Articles

Order Manuscript Editing Nineteenth-Century Literature publishes articles on a broad range of nineteenth-century transatlantic authors and poets, read with a keen sense of the period's literary history and theory. The University of California Press publishes it quarterly, and it is edited in the Department of English at UCLA, where it was founded in 1945 as The Trollopian. Its essays cross disciplines, taking up gender, race, empire, ecology, and urbanism.

Articles run 7,000 to 12,000 words, and the journal does not take unsolicited book reviews. Off the Grid Editing applies the journal's instructions when you send them, including its reference style, and checks that each quotation matches its source. Accepted authors sign a UC Press author agreement. Submissions go through Scholastica, where questions about manuscripts under review are also handled.
