History

The James Joyce Quarterly was established in 1963 at the University of Tulsa by Thomas F. Staley, who was the journal's editor-in-chief for its first twenty-five years. From 1989 to 2001 Robert Spoo edited the journal and in 2001 Sean Latham succeeded Spoo. In 2022 Latham announced he was stepping down as editor, with Spoo returning as co-editor along with Jeff Drouin. Notable contributors to the JJQ include Fritz Senn, Hans Walter Gabler, Morris Beja, John McCourt, Vicki Mahaffey, Margot Norris, and Michael Groden.
