<p>The title of an academic journal should identify its subject area, embody the spirit of the discipline, distinguish its orientation to the field, present a positive image of its subject, and accommodate—if not reflect—the current state of the art. Because the scope of Journal of Basic Writing has been expansive over the years, and because the connotations of "basic writing" have changed since the journal's inception, it is appropriate, under new editorial management, to consider changing the journal name to reflect these changes.</p> |
