Founded in 1950 by the Shakespeare Association of America, Shakespeare Quarterly is a refereed journal committed to publishing articles in the vanguard of Shakespeare studies, notes that bring to light new information on Shakespeare and his age, issue and exchange sections on the latest research and debates, theater reviews of significant Shakespeare productions, and book reviews to keep readers current with Shakespeare criticism and scholarship.
The journal is published quarterly in the spring, summer, fall, and winter and includes the World Shakespeare Bibliography Online. Compiled by Professor James Harner, the Bibliography attempts to record all important books, articles, book reviews, dissertations and dissertation abstracts, theatrical productions and theater reviews, and significant reprints of Shakespeare-related works issued during the year.
SQ's editor is Dr. David Schalkwyk, who is the director of research at the Folger Shakespeare Library.
