The total duration of service is three and a half years, through July 2029, and the new editor will assist in the selection of a second co-editor for 2027. The co-editors supervise each volume from the first call for papers through the referee and editorial process, production, and promotion/circulation. The position affords opportunities to develop the journal, impact Eliot scholarship, and build professional relationships. Record of scholarly publication necessary, but not editorial experience; learn on the job.
