TheMississippi Quarterly: The Journal of Southern Cultures is apeer-reviewed scholarly journal that mainly coversSouthernhistory andliterature. Originally entitledSocial Sciences Bulletin, it was established in 1948 byJohn K. Bettersworth, who was associated with the journal until his death in 1991.[1] While it began with a very wide focus, initially covering a variety of topics that fell under the umbrella of the social sciences, starting in 1953 theBulletin gradually narrowed its academic range.[1] Changing its title to its current state in that same year, the newly christenedQuarterly soon began to focus almost solely on Southern literature. In 1968 it adopted its current subtitle, further cementing its reputation as a humanities journal.[1] In that year it also began its cooperation with theSociety for the Study of Southern Literature through which was produced the "Annual Checklist of Scholarship in Southern Literature". Its editors have includedRobert B. Holland,Scott C. Osborn,Peyton W. Williams, Jr.,Robert L. Phillipps, Jr., and Noel Polk. Its current editor is Ted Atkinson and its Associate and Managing editors areRobert M. West andLaura West respectively.[2]
