In this Issue
The Scriblerian and the Kit-Cats publishes imaginative, insightful, and concise reviews of scholarship on the long eighteenth century (1660–1830). Dedicated to British, comparative, and global studies, the journal welcomes transnational and interdisciplinary research on the period’s literature, history, and intellectual life, including book history and print culture, empire and colonialism, race and gender, visual and material culture, digital humanities, and the global Enlightenment. Founded in 1968, this biannual journal features expert reviews of recent books and peer-reviewed essays alongside original notes, brief essays, bibliographical commentary, exhibition reports, plenary talks, conversation pieces, and other scholarly contributions. By bringing together critical reviews and original scholarship, The Scriblerian and the Kit-Cats serves as an international forum for eighteenth-century studies, providing readers with a comprehensive snapshot of current research, developments, and debates across the field.
