more than just a journal
19 will build an ever-expanding archive of pioneering material, much of it unique to the journal.
Pieces will be presented with a rich variety of visual and audio material that cannot be incorporated in more traditional methods of publishing.
We will invite readers to join the debate by responding to our keynote articles; the most stimulating or interesting responses will be published online.
Alongside the publication of original material, we will offer with each article handpicked and maintained links to relevant online resources, such as difficult-to-obtain primary texts, scholarly websites and other criticism. Reading an article at 19 will be a stimulating, interactive experience.
We will introduce readers to the latest and best online resources in nineteenth-century studies, through review articles written by those involved in such projects. From digitised periodical archives to innovative ways of interacting with texts, we aim to let you know what's new and exciting in digital humanities scholarship.
Unlike traditional print journals, we will enable readers to follow the afterlife of each article, supplying links to related work by each author.

Keynote articles are connected to the Centre for Nineteenth-Century Studies' prestigious programme of seminars and conferences. Invited submissions are subject to a rigorous peer-review process from our editorial board, whose expertise covers a wide range of disciplines. As part of the journal's commitment to new research 19 will provide regular space for the best postgraduate work in the field.
We warmly invite responses to published articles. Responses are refereed and may be edited before publication. Read more . . .
