Dutch Crossing : Journal of Low Countries Studies


Dutch Crossing, established in 1977, is a peer-reviewed interdisciplinary scholarly journal, dedicated to all aspects of Low Countries studies: Dutch language and literature, history and art history, the social sciences and cultural studies, and Dutch as a second language. Newly designed for 2009 it is now published by Maney Publishing and available both online (via IngentaConnect) and in print. Geographical coverage includes both the Netherlands and Belgium, as well as other places where Dutch historically had or continues to have an impact, including parts of the Americas, Southern Africa and South-East Asia. A special focus concerns relations between the Low Countries and the English-speaking world in all periods from the Middle Ages to the present day.
