Digital Defoe
Digital Defoe is a new open access, peer-reviewed online journal in which scholars and educators who specialize in eighteenth-century culture can share their work in multimedia as well as showcase new teaching methods, works in progress, and student voices. This cultural studies journal focuses on the works of early eighteenth-century author Daniel Defoe, perhaps most well known as the author of Robinson Crusoe but also an innovator of the novel, prolific poet, political pamphleteer, and even secret agent. The journal also welcomes submissions on any author or aspect of late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century culture.
Digital Defoe strives to meet four goals: to raise the bar for online educational content in history and literary studies with high quality, peer-reviewed, free access scholarly work; to bring student voices into the conversation with experts in the field; to emphasize the multicultural, global interests at stake in studying this period; and to provide a place to showcase as well as critique multimodal scholarship in the field. The journal accepts textual articles as well as multimodal material for its themed and open issues.
