Originating
in the 1960s as a response to the narrow range of index and information
on Victorian Periodicals, the Victorian Periodicals Review has
developed a large and far-reaching audience. VPR has evolved to
a review with an annual index, member questionnaires, and one
of a projected series of guides to major research libraries and
their holdings, lists of forthcoming articles, obituaries of members
who played a substantial role and informative articles on a wide
range of topics from a variety of disciplines. |
VPR is
the only refereed journal that concentrates on the editorial and publishing
history of Victorian periodicals. Its emphasis is on the importance
of periodicals for an understanding of the history and culture of
Victorian Britain, Ireland, and the Empire. Special issues have been
devoted to Dickens, Macmillan’s Magazine, Art, Theory, American
Periodicals, Women Critics and Editors, and the Athenaeum.
Published
quarterly by the University of Toronto Press in partnership with the
Research Society for Victorian Periodicals. ISSN: 0709–4698
