Letter From the Editor

Dear Readers,

In my letter published in the last issue, I announced my efforts to facilitate a leadership transition for the journal. I am very pleased to report that the search for the new Executive Editor for the Journal of Nietzsche Studies has concluded with the enthusiastic endorsement of Dr. Jessica Berry, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Georgia State University. And I’m happier still that she’s agreed to take on the role and make Georgia State the journal’s new editorial home. I hope you will join me in celebrating this fortunate result.

Professor Berry is an expert in the field and the author of Nietzsche and the Ancient Skeptical Tradition and numerous articles on Nietzsche and antiquity. She is well known by our readers, since for nearly four years she has served as Associate Editor for the journal and brings considerable experience with content editing and development.

I am deeply grateful to Editorial Board Member Professor David Owen for stepping up as chair of the committee and to fellow board members, Professors R. Lanier Anderson, Maudemarie Clark, Brian Leiter, and Paul S. Loeb, for their service along with the president of the Friedrich Nietzsche Society, Professor Herman Siemens.

Thanks in large part to you, our readers, the journal is in good shape for the new editor with plenty of opportunities for her to develop. Please support her with your suggestions and submissions of your current research.

Yours truly,
Christa Davis Acampora
