THE HISTORICAL JOURNAL OF MASSACHUSETTS
Dr. Mara Dodge is the Editorial Director of the Historical Journal of Massachusetts. This is a peer-reviewed journal published in April and October by the WSC History Department. Student internships are available. Graduate and undergraduate students are encouraged to submit book reviews and articles.
As the only scholarly journal devoted exclusively to the history of Massachusetts, the Historical Journal of Massachusetts fills an important role. Since its founding in 1972, the journal has published articles by well-known historians, along with cutting-edge research by graduate students, middle and high school history teachers, amateur history buffs, and countless local historians who have labored to uncover and rediscover the fascinating history of a pioneering state.
Throughout our nation’s history, Massachusetts has played a pivotal and often pioneering role. We cover all topics and aspects of the Commonwealth’s past —from its Native American heritage through its colonial and revolutionary roots to the present. We strive to include all fields of history, including political, social, cultural, economic, labor, legal, and immigration. We also seek to highlight the unique histories of different groups and populations, including women’s history; ethnic and religious studies; and the diverse experiences of the state’s many minority groups.
