About the Journal

Since 1968, The Scriblerian and the Kit-Cats has offered imaginative, insightful, and concise reviews of scholarship addressing British literature of the late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-centuries. The biannual journal offers knowledgeable responses to recent peer-reviewed essays on figures such as Addison, Behn, Congreve, Defoe, Dryden, Haywood, Fielding, Richardson, Swift, and Sterne, as well as reviews of recent books on the history, literature, and culture of the period. Notes and bibliographical commentary often accompany the Scriblerian’s comprehensive article and book reviews.
