About the journal
Aims and Scope
Milton Quarterly reflects the aims and interests of the world-wide community of people interested in the poet and author best known for Paradise Lost, John Milton. It provides news, schedules of conferences, abstracts and reviews, as well as a number of articles and notes on Milton's works, his career, his literary surroundings and his place in cultural history. Milton Quarterly also provides access to on-line bibliographies, full text services and collections of images, through its website and the listserv Milton-L.
Milton Quarterly aims to keep its readers informed of exciting trends in criticism, without becoming trendy, and it offers a variety of critical perspectives in each issue, from textually-oriented to historical, psychological and multicultural. The editors of Milton Quarterly seek out articles that represent the cutting edge of modern scholarship on the poet and his time.

Style:
Quotations:
Quotation marks Double quotes. For quote within a quote, use single quotes within double.
Short quotation: If a prose quotation is 4 lines or less, or a poetry quotation is only 2 complete lines or less, it should be incorporated into text, within double quotes. If there is a reference, it should be at the end in brackets, e.g. "with high words, that bore / Semblance of worth, not substance" (1.528-29). Line breaks within poetry quoted in the text are indicated as shown in the example above, i.e. with / [separated from text with a space on each side], and the next word begins with a capital letter.
Long quotation: separate from text with one line space above and below. No quotation marks. The reference should be placed, in brackets, immediately after the quotation., e.g.
Hadst thou the same free Will and Power to stand? Thou hadst: whom hast thou then or what to accuse, But Heav'ns free Love dealt equally to all? (4.66-70)
In cases where the reference will not fit on the line, the reference should be placed on the next line, aligned right.
Ellipsis Ellipsis within a long poetry quotation should be indicated with for a break of under a line, e.g. in this pleasant soil His far more pleasant Garden God ordain'd.
but if a full line is missing, it should be indicated by a full line of as long as the widest part of the quotation, e.g. Thou didst accept [those terms]; wilt thou enjoy the good, Then cavil the conditions? God made thee of choice his own, and of his own To serve him, thy reward was of his grace.
References:
References within text In brackets, in the following format: (10.840-41) or (Yale 1: 835) But if the reference is within text which is already within brackets, the reference goes in square brackets: (Satan [4.37-48] and Adam [10.720-25])
