Volume 27, Issue 1: In Memoriam Ina-Maria Greverus
About a year ago we heard of the sudden death founding editor Ina-Maria Greverus. The editorial board discussed the idea of a special issue featuring contributions by members of the board past and present as well as others whose paths had crossed with Ina-Maria’s, and decided to issue an ‘open-format’ call, encouraging a variety of reflexive, reminiscent, or otherwise discursive engagement with Ina-Maria, her work, and her influence.

Volume 13, Issue 1
This issue of Contributions to the History of Concepts brings together five articles that deal with particular concepts in given historical discourses and are thus seemingly unrelated, but they are brought together because of their focus on words carrying the suffix -ism. The following issue will include two more articles that relate to the theme. This issue concludes with book reviews. |

Volume 44, Issue 1
This issue of Historical Reflections marks the last under the editorship of senior editor Linda E. Mitchell. In it, Steven Pinker’s book, The Better Angels of Our Nature, is evaluated by the standards of professional historical scholarship. The articles included study violence in prehistory, the European Enlightenment, interwar Africa and the Middle East, and European fascism and thematically take up sexual violence, violence and the history of science and technology, and violence in neurohistory. The second issue of this volume will be the first with Dr. Elizabeth Macknight as senior editor.
We are saddened to report the passing of long-standing editorial board member Vicki L. Eaklor. A terrific colleague, talented musician, creative scholar, and brilliant teacher, Vicki will be missed by all who knew her zest for life, intellectual rigor, sense of humor, and love of good bourbon. |
