From the Editor

Beginning with this issue, we will no longer use the “spring” and “fall” notation for the journal, and, instead, we will simply use volume and number. This issue, then, is volume 24, number 1 (2023), rather than volume 24, number 1 (Spring 2023). We hope this will be a smooth transition just as we hope that accessing the journal electronically in the new way hasn’t caused problems. Please feel free to email me at bac7@psu.edu or Travis Montgomery at tdmontg1@gmail.com if you have found digital accessibility difficult. We may be able to help.In our last issue, an image was inadvertently left out of a “Marginalia” entry and replaced with one that didn’t link with the text. We apologize for this error. So that the meaning of the argument is not lost, you will find a letter to the editor from Paul Lewis, author of “The First Caricature of Poe Reconsidered,” that includes the missing image and clarifies its purpose.You will find two entries in this issue that go beyond our usual categories. Shoko Itoh of the Poe Society of Japan sent me the fourth international Poe bibliography, and it’s included in this issue; the third international bibliography of Japan can be found in volume 18, number 2. We also included a compilation of favorite Poe sentences sent via the PSA listserv, prompted by an invitation from Beth Sweeney. We hope we have not left any out, but we can’t promise complete accuracy and beg your forgiveness if that happens to be the case.We hope you’ve been enjoying our newest column, “Critical Reassessments.” We look forward to reading the forthcoming entry in volume 24, number 2, by Isaac Kolding on Sidney Moss’s Poe’s Literary Battles (1963) and hope you enjoy the one in this issue by Sami Atassi on Daniel Hoffman’s Poe Poe Poe Poe Poe Poe Poe. We invite your responses to these reassessments, and we will publish them in the “Letters to the Editor” section of the journal with the hope of creating a lively conversation to enjoy as do those who read the letters to the editor in the TLS.
