Update for May/June 2007

In the three weeks following the publication of S&P 30.1 the editorial team, with the help of our authors, have managed to complete a second issue: S&P 30.2. Production has been brought forward for this issue because, with a number of people away over winter, we will be unable to typeset and layout another issue until August.

Though the contents will not be finalised for another couple of days, it is likely that S&P 30.2 will contain the following:

Article 1: John Burrows, 'Sarah and Henry Fielding and the Authorship of The History of Ophelia: A Computational Analysis' [pp.69-92]

Article 2: Anthony J. Hassall, 'Sarah and Henry Fielding and the Authorship of The History of Ophelia: Literary Considerations' [pp.93-100]

Article 3: Toni Johnson-Woods, 'Pulp Friction: Governmental Control of Cheap Fiction, 1939–1959' [pp.101-115]

Reviews: Studies in Bibliography, vol. 54 (reviewed by B. J. McMullin); The Collected Verse of Mary Gilmore (reviewed by Dennis Haskell); Memorial Volumes to Jewish Communities Destroyed in the Holocaust (reviewed by Marianne Dacy); Patrick White: A Bibliography (reviewed by Elizabeth Webby) [pp.116-122]

Looking forward: Joe Rudman has also been invited to respond to the articles by John Burrows and Anthony J. Hassall. Wallace Kirsop's 'Museums, Lyceums, Athenaeums and Mechanics' Institutes,' illustrated with rare eighteenth-century French pamphlets, will appear in S&P 30.3. This issue will also contain an Opinion Piece by Tara McLeod on 'The Private Press in New Zealand in the Twenty-First Century' and a number of bibliographical notes.
