Since 1973, The Arnoldian has provided its readership with articles, notes, and other information about "Arnold and his circle." Surprisingly, though, no cover has yet featured Arnold's closest friend, Arthur Hugh Clough. We thought it fitting that, since this issue contains two major articles about Clough and his work, we should use this opportunity to rectify our oversight. The portrait we've selected is an 1860 chalk drawing by S. Rowse; the original is in the National Portrait Gallery. The Arnoldian is published twice a year. In addition to serving Arnoldians through brief articles, notes and bibliographical items, The Arnoldian publishes essay reviews on Victorian subjects outside of Arnold and his circle. We also especially invite essays on Mid-Victorian non-fiction. Submissions should conform to the MLA Style Sheet. Please submit in duplicate to The Arnoldian, Department of English, U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, MD 21402. (All rates in U.S. dollars; overseas postage is included.)
