About Shakespeare Quarterly
Shakespeare Quarterly (SQ) is a leading journal in Shakespeare studies, publishing highly original, rigorously researched essays, notes, and book reviews. Published for the Folger Shakespeare Library by the Oxford University Press (OUP), SQ is peer-reviewed and very selective.
The essays in our published pages span the field and feature readings of Shakespeare’s works influenced by queer and gender studies, premodern critical race studies (PCRS), textual studies, theater history, and archival, new media, and historicist approaches. Our mission, simply put, is to present the best scholarship on Shakespeare.

Call for Editors: Shakespeare Quarterly
Applications are now closed for Shakespeare Quarterly‘s three-person editorial team.
We envision this team of editors helping to set the tone for SQ by soliciting and selecting individual essays and special issues that match the current mission and future vision of the journal and the fields of Shakespeare and early modern studies. The editorial team will be tasked with sustaining and expanding Shakespeare Quarterly’s reputation as a flagship journal in our fields.
Applications are being reviewed by the Executive Subcommittee of the SQ Editorial Board. Please direct questions to Dr. Patricia Akhimie (pakhimie@folger.edu) or reach out to any member of the Editorial Board to find out more.
