Open Access Journal: Digressus

Digressus, a fully refereed online journal formed by a consortium of postgraduates at the universities of Nottingham and Birmingham, UK, seeks primarily to give postgraduates interested in Classical Studies the opportunity to begin publishing.

 

We are in contact with postgraduates and representative scholars in the United Kingdom, Italy, the United States and Canada.

 

Digressus is indexed by Gnomon and APh. Articles and reviews are also available from EBSCO Publishing (forthcoming 2012).
