Journal News! New Book Reviews Editor

Clare Loughlin sits on a wooden fence in the countryside. She has shoulder-length dark red hair and is wearing jeans and a black cardigan. She is smiling and surrounded by tall trees.

The SHRT is delighted to welcome Dr Clare Loughlin as Reviews Editor for The Scottish Historical Review. Currently based at the University of Stirling as part of The Scottish Privy Council Project, Dr Loughlin is an historian of religion, politics, and ideas in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, with a particular focus on Scotland. Her other research interests include Jacobitism, anti-Jacobitism, and the histories of early modern refugees. Her publications include an article in the peer-reviewed journal Scottish Church History, and a forthcoming chapter in the edited volume Varieties of Anti-Popery in Early Modern British History, produced as part of the AHRC-funded Anti-Catholicism Research Network. Also keep an eye out for Dr Loughlin's forthcoming monograph on Anti-Catholicism and Protestant identities in eighteenth-century Scotland. 

"I was delighted to be appointed to the role of Reviews Editor for Scottish Historical Review. I am looking forward to commissioning reviews of the latest titles in Scottish History, as well as works dealing with broader themes relevant to Scotland's past, including Empire, diaspora and intellectual change. I would be pleased to hear from PhD students and academics who wish to review a particular title or series of books for a review essay."

All books for review should be sent to Dr Loughlin at Division of History, Heritage and Politics, Faculty of Arts and Humanities, University of Stirling, Pathfoot Building, Stirling, FK9 4LA, Scotland.
