CANADIAN JOURNAL OF IRISH STUDIES
Dr. Rhona Richman Kenneally, Editor of the Canadian Journal of Irish Studies/ Revue canadienne d’études irlandaises, is pleased to announce the publication of the latest issue, volume 36, number 2.
The table of contents appears below. The new issue includes an interdisciplinary collection of compelling scholarship, with contributions to Irish and Irish-Canadian literary criticism, history, translation studies, and art history, in addition to an interview with Northern Ireland playwright Damian Gorman and a diverse book reviews section.
The journal is handsomely designed following the striking aesthetic inaugurated in the previous issue to produce a volume that is both thought-provoking and attractive.
This issue also introduces a new element of the CJIS/RCÉI known as "A Treasury of Resources," which will henceforth appear in each issue. The goal is to feature primary sources hitherto unpublished, available only in obscure archives, or otherwise not readily accessible. We will strive to introduce readers to a range of materials relevant to many disciplines, as diverse as the medium of paper publication allows. This section will be accompanied by a brief introduction. Cumulatively, the issues will therefore comprise a growing collection of treasures, of interest to scholars as well as the informed public.
Issues of the journal are currently in the mail to CAIS members. Others may purchase copies of the journal by credit card for $25CDN (post paid) by contacting the Managing Editor at cjis.rcei@concordia.ca
