A little tailoring can sew up chance of success

Article Abstract:

Advice for academics on how they can improve the chances of their work making it into print by customising their articles to fit the taste and style of specific publications. Advice includes identifying a journal before starting work and writing specifically to fit it's style, making the right preparations to sell work and self to any prospective publishers, and, if possible, taking the public into consideration as potential readers when preparing the work, thereby not alienating a potentially very large audience.

The best Will in the world

Article Abstract:

Jonathan Bate, a Shakespeare scholar, editor for the Arden Shakespeare and newly appointed academic adviser on the board of the Royal Shakespeare Company, believes that as a result of the constantly changing face of Shakespeare scholarship, there wil always be room for the publication of new versions of the various plays. Bate contends that while it is open for debate which versions of each play are the best, as a whole the Arden or Oxford series are better than the Cambridge.

An analysis of the way in which boundaries between academic disciplines are becoming increasingly nebulous and how this means that it is increasingly possible for academics to collaborate with others outside of their traditional field. The difficulties of such interdisciplinary study are examined, as are the benefits and the possibilities that it offers.
