About the journal
The Journal of Victorian Culture ( JVC ) promotes the best work on all aspects of nineteenth-century society, culture, and the material world including: literature, art, performance, politics, science, medicine, technology, lived experience, and ideas. It welcomes submissions which address a broad Victorian studies readership and explore new questions and approaches. Concerned with the long nineteenth century, its legacies, and echoes in the present day, the journal encourages articles which interrogate periodisation, historiography and critical traditions.
With an international Editorial Board, the journal has earned a reputation for its innovative features:
Roundtable
The Roundtable hosts conversations between scholars from different disciplinary perspectives and authors of major works in nineteenth-century studies.
Perspective
The Perspective invites leading scholars to appraise the critical practices and traditions of Victorian studies. These essays offer pithy and provocative accounts of developments in the field.
Book Reviews
JVC ’s acclaimed Review section publishes essays of 2,000 words on major books covering the nineteenth century. Please send books for review to the Reviews Editor, Rohan McWilliam, Department of History, Anglia Ruskin University, East Road, Cambridge, CB1 1PT and enquiries to r.a.mcwilliam@anglia.ac.uk
Digital Forum
The Digital Forum provides an indispensable guide to how the nineteenth century will change as we encounter it in digital form. It brings together interested users, expert proponents, and the deeply sceptical to present a range of perspectives upon the differences that digitisation might make to the discipline. Please send submissions or ideas for contributions to James Mussell, editor of the Digital Forum, j.mussell@bham.ac.uk
New Agenda
New Agenda brings together a group of scholars in active discussion over a set of essays which seek to open up new dialogues, explore innovative lines of enquiry, develop original conceptual and methodological approaches, or examine a topic from radically different perspectives.
The Victorians Beyond the Academy
This new feature explores the representation of Victorians in contemporary culture from museums, galleries and theme parks to the school curriculum, fiction and the ‘New Victoriana’, television and audio adaptations to the Hollywood and Bollywood blockbuster. It provides a forum for scholars to critically evaluate the impact of their work outside the academy and to assess alternative depictions of and myths about the Victorians.

Journal of Victorian Culture interprets the notions of ‘Victorian’ and ‘Culture’ very broadly, and solicits articles dealing with any aspect of the long nineteenth century and its legacies, focusing on Britain and all other parts of the world where culture can be studied in a Victorian context. JVC is addressed to scholars working within the various disciplines that traditionally have constituted Victorian studies; it also confronts issues about and raises questions across disciplinary boundaries. The editorial board welcomes articles that adopt an interdisciplinary approach to their subject matter. However, the board also encourages articles which, while focusing on one sub-discipline, reflect on the implications of their argument for other Victorian studies constituencies. All manuscripts should be written in a style accessible across disciplines. Authors should keep in mind this question: how is this research of interest to other Victorianists?
Journal of Victorian Culture considers all manuscripts on the strict condition that
- the manuscript is your own original work, and does not duplicate any other previously published work, including your own previously published work.
- the manuscript has been submitted only to Journal of Victorian Culture ; it is not under consideration or peer review or accepted for publication or in press or published elsewhere.
- the manuscript contains nothing that is abusive, defamatory, libellous, obscene, fraudulent, or illegal.
Please note that Journal of Victorian Culture uses CrossCheck™ software to screen manuscripts for unoriginal material. By submitting your manuscript to Journal of Victorian Culture you are agreeing to any necessary originality checks your manuscript may have to undergo during the peer-review and production processes.
Any author who fails to adhere to the above conditions will be charged with costs which Journal of Victorian Culture incurs for their manuscript at the discretion of Journal of Victorian Culture ’s Editors and Taylor & Francis, and their manuscript will be rejected.
This journal is compliant with the Research Councils UK OA policy. Please see the licence options and embargo periods here .
Manuscript preparation
1. General guidelines
- Manuscripts are accepted in English. Oxford English Dictionary spelling and punctuation are preferred. Please use single quotation marks, except where ‘a quotation is “within” a quotation’. Long quotations of 40 words or more should be indented without quotation marks. Referencing should be via footnotes, using shortened title after first reference to a text. Avoid discursiveness in footnotes. Only use parenthetical documentation for frequent references to a text, or texts, under study.
- A typical manuscript should be in the region of 7000-8000 words including footnotes. Manuscripts that greatly exceed this will be critically reviewed with respect to length. In exceptional cases, the Journal will consider longer essays but only if the material and analysis merit additional length. Two word counts should be stated; one excluding endnotes, the other including endnotes.
- Manuscripts should be compiled in the following order: title page; abstract; keywords; main text; appendices (as appropriate); table(s) with caption(s) (on individual pages); figure caption(s) (as a list). Any acknowledgements should be included before the first footnote.
- Abstracts of 250 words and keywords are required for all manuscripts submitted. The abstract should deal with the substance, approach and main argument of the piece.
- Search engine optimization (SEO) is a means of making your article more visible to anyone who might be looking for it. Please consult our guidance here .
- Section headings should be concise and numbered sequentially, using a decimal system for subsections.
- All authors of a manuscript should include their full names, affiliations, postal addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses on the cover page of the manuscript. One author should be identified as the corresponding author. Please give the affiliation where the research was conducted. If any of the named co-authors moves affiliation during the peer review process, the new affiliation can be given as a footnote. Please note that no changes to affiliation can be made after the manuscript is accepted. Please note that the email address of the corresponding author will normally be displayed in the article PDF (depending on the journal style) and the online article.
- All persons who have a reasonable claim to authorship must be named in the manuscript as co-authors; the corresponding author must be authorized by all co-authors to act as an agent on their behalf in all matters pertaining to publication of the manuscript, and the order of names should be agreed by all authors.
- Please supply a short biographical note for each author.
- Please supply all details required by any funding and grant-awarding bodies as an Acknowledgement on the title page of the manuscript, in a separate paragraph, as follows:
-
- For single agency grants: "This work was supported by the [Funding Agency] under Grant [number xxxx]."
- For multiple agency grants: "This work was supported by the [Funding Agency 1] under Grant [number xxxx]; [Funding Agency 2] under Grant [number xxxx]; and [Funding Agency 3] under Grant [number xxxx]."
- Authors must also incorporate a Disclosure Statement which will acknowledge any financial interest or benefit they have arising from the direct applications of their research.
- For all manuscripts non-discriminatory language is mandatory. Sexist or racist terms must not be used.
- Authors must adhere to SI units . Units are not italicised.
- When using a word which is or is asserted to be a proprietary term or trade mark, authors must use the symbol ® or TM.
2. Citing digital sources
JVC encourages contributors to indicate whenever they use digital resources and to give the url for cited resources. If urls are lengthy or have been generated on the fly (for instance, as the result of a search) the url of the homepage should be given instead. Contributors should beware the often subtle differences between the name of a project, company or organization, the title of their published outcome or resource, and their respective urls. There are pointers to referencing in MHRA Style Guide but note:
