Keats-Shelley Journal Volume 67

We’re delighted to share information about the newly published volume of the  Keats-Shelley Journal. This latest volume features articles on Felicia Hemans and painter William E. West and “noise” in Keats’s Lamia; a series of essays from the 2017 K-SAA Symposium on “The Emergence of Keats as a Poet”; and another series from the 2018 MLA Panel, “Romantics at 200: 2018 Reads 1818.”

The Journal’s new review co-editors, Andrew Burkett and Yasmin Solomonescu, also present two new review features: an omnibus review and a series of performance reviews focused on the afterlives of Keats, the Shelleys, Byron, Hunt, and their circles. The first omnibus review examines recent work on Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley; and the current volume features reviews of recent adaptations and stagings of Frankenstein.

A subscription to the Keats-Shelley Journal is included with membership in the Association, and previous issues of are available through Project Muse and JSTOR.
