Manuscript Editing for Studies in Romanticism Journal Articles

Order Manuscript Editing Studies in Romanticism publishes “original essays on all aspects of literature and culture” of the Romantic century, which it defines as 1750 to 1850. Johns Hopkins University Press publishes it quarterly. Its editor and managing editor are at Boston University.

Essays run no more than 9,000 words, notes and bibliography included. Citations follow Chicago notes and bibliography, with footnotes at the foot of each page kept to a minimum; later references to primary sources may go in the text. An abstract of 300 words or fewer goes as a separate attachment. After the editors screen it, an essay goes to double-blind review, so your name appears nowhere in the file and self-citations are in the third person. Quotations in other languages need English translations, and the journal allows no more than three images. Our essay editing trims the notes and converts self-citations. You email the essay to the managing editor.
