Generating a strong sense of dialogue and engagement, of research with a public face, Literature Compass gives desktop access to the driving ideas, current issues and controversies that enliven the discipline and fuel literary research. It provides a critical platform for the scholar and an ideal entry point for the non-specialist.

• Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies
The Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies (JECS) acts as a meeting-place for the many academic disciplines that make up a period study: among others, history, literature, science, economics, fine art, music, religion, geography and popular culture. Special notice is taken of research that explores links between the disciplines and that helps to develop cross-disciplinary fields of enquiry. Significant and original research taking any methodological approach – from the heavily historicized and data-driven to the theoretically informed – is all equally valued.
JECS seeks to publish the best research on the long eighteenth century (c. 1675–1825) irrespective of which parts of the world this research concerns. While most of the articles appearing since its launch (as the British Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies) in 1978 have focused on Western Europe and North America, new research on the eighteenth century beyond those borders, and on the interconnected ‘global eighteenth century’, is now particularly welcome.
