Issue Number 54 Spring 2006

Introduction

         by: Paul Kameen and Mariolina Salvatori, University of Pittsburgh

This is the final issue that we are co-editing for READER, which will be moving to Lafayette College this summer, into the very capable hands of our distinguished colleague and friend, Patricia Donahue. Five years ago, we were grateful to receive the journal in such strong condition from our predecessor, Elizabeth Flynn. We have very much enjoyed, learned from, and been nourished by our period of stewardship with READER, and we are grateful to be turning it over in similarly strong condition to Donahue. We want to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who contributed to this endeavor: a supportive administration at the University of Pittsburgh, our two dedicated and talented Managing Editors, Geoff Bonina and Peg Figore, our faithful subscribers, our Board, the many reviewers whose keen judgments and advice we have relied on, and the writers whose exceptional scholarship constitutes the body of work that READER has come to represent. We have especially enjoyed, and taken personal reward from, the work we have done with writers relatively new to the profession—in a couple of cases, writers who were publishing their first work in READER.
We think it’s appropriate that this, our final issue, covers quite nicely all of the ground staked out in READER’s ambitious subtitle: criticism, theory, and pedagogy. We have made an especial effort over the years to seek out and publish reader-oriented scholarship in the latter category, scholarship that happens now to be burgeoning without a lot of available venues for its presentation. We trust READER will continue to attend to this important need of our profession.
