Encyclopedia of American Studies Online
The Encyclopedia of American Studies Online (EAS) brings together a wide range of disciplines related to the history and cultures of the United States, from pre-colonial days to the present. It features broad, synthetic articles covering areas such as history, literature, art, photography, film, architecture, urban studies, ethnicity, race, gender, economics, politics, wars, consumer culture, and global America, along with a wide range of more particular subjects and biographies. It is a comprehensive reference work, updated and expanded several times a year, and authored by hundreds of scholars.
Sponsored by the American Studies Association and published by Johns Hopkins University Press, the EAS is available through library subscriptions and as a benefit to members of the American Studies Association.
Based on the four-volume print version (2001), the EAS is edited at Temple University by Miles Orvell, who is assisted by an international editorial board. Other Temple faculty, graduate students, and undergraduates are also involved in its production.

Schuylkill
Schuylkill is a peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary journal founded, edited and run by graduate students at Temple University. We are looking for scholarly submissions and book reviews in the areas of Anglo-American literature, Critical Theory, and Composition/Rhetoric and seek to publish the work of graduate students across the country and around the world.
The journal's name is a tribute to the Schuylkill River, which runs through the Philadelphia area in which we work and study. But it is also significant for the richness of the metaphor: signifying connections, and the incorporation of various elements and sources. We recognize that the boundaries of English studies are fluid and open to different critical approaches and we especially welcome interdisciplinary research in graduate student submissions.
Submission Guidelines
If you would like to submit your work to Schuylkill, please e-mail essay submissions in Word format to skook@temple.edu with author name and contact information on the first page only; please also send reviews as attachments in Word format to the same address, also with author name and contact information on the first page only. Submissions should be 10-20 pages long, double-spaced, in MLA style. In an effort to minimize our environmental impact, copies of submissions not accepted for publication will be recycled.
