The Eugene O'Neill Review

A project of Penn State University Press (see other related projects).

About

The Eugene O’Neill Review is the official academic journal of the Eugene O’Neill Society, an organization of scholars, theater professionals, and enthusiasts founded in 1978. We publish authoritative peer-reviewed essays and notes, aimed primarily at a community of scholars interested in O’Neill’s life and writing. Studies might focus on theatrical or literary history, including biography, or on critical interpretation or pedagogy. Consideration will be given to submissions on topics relevant to but not centrally concerned with O’Neill, such as comparatist work and work on O’Neill’s colleagues and collaborators in the Provincetown Players and elsewhere. Diverse methods and perspectives are encouraged; clear, correct, and readable prose is expected. By commission, we publish little-known or rediscovered documents, with appropriate contextualizing (Lost & Found); variously configured discussions among theater makers and other specialists (Practitioners’ Colloquia); reviews of dramatic performances and pertinent books; and reports of newly opened or augmented archives.

Peer Review: This publication uses peer review for some or all submissions. Check for details.
