I am currently considering the possibility of starting up an online International Undergraduate Shakespeare Journal, in order to encourage and disseminate undergraduate writing on Shakespeare and related topics. I am at the very early stages of considering and planning this project, and would be very interested to hear advice and suggestions from fellow REED-Lers. Would you / your students be interested in such a publication (whether writing for it or reading it)? Are there any features that you would particularly want to see in such a publication in order to make it valuable to you / your students? I would be particularly interested to hear from my fellow undergraduates, those who teach undergraduates, and anybody with experience of publishing a journal (whether in print or online) who might be able to give me the benefit of their experience. Clearly quality control will be a major element in establishing a useful Journal. I would ideally like to find a way of making publication in the Journal something which a student can proudly list on their CV. I have not yet decided whether the best way to do this might be to instigate some sort of "refereed journal" system for the vetting of articles / essays, or whether - this being the case - the referees should be other undergraduates, graduate students, or qualified Shakespeareans. Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions about this? If anybody would like to get involved in this project, or would be willing to offer advice and support as the idea develops, then I would be very grateful if they would contact me by personal E-Mail. More general advice could be sent to the list for consideration and discussion by the group. Thomas Larque. "Shakespeare and His Critics" http://shakespearean.org.uk
