Digital Defoe: Studies in Defoe and His Contemporaries

ISSN 1948-1802

Aims and Scope Digital Defoe is a mutually-anonymous peer-reviewed online journal with new volumes released annually. We welcome submissions exploring any area relating to Defoe and/or his contemporaries—broadly conceived. In addition to traditional scholarly papers, we welcome submissions of notes, pedagogical resources and reflections, as well as innovative multimedia projects relating to the long eighteenth century. Our journal was founded with the following goals in mind:
  • to navigate the potential and the limitations of digital culture for eighteenth-century studies
  • to be honest and transparent about why we and our authors make particular communicational and technological choices when sharing our projects
  • to mediate the conversation between our readers and the narratives they see unfold in each volume.
  • Digital Defoe is indexed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), Google Scholar, the European Reference Index for the Humanities and Social Sciences (ERIH Plus), and the MLA International Bibliography. We archive the web page and PDFs once a year in the Internet Archive.
