Editor's Note

Editor's Note the twenty-five years since Legacy's founding can be measured in statistics: the journal comprises more than fifty issues, printed by four different presses, prepared by seven editors and a dozen or so editorial associates, aided by countless graduate and administrative assistants, not to mention the silent but absolutely necessary work of unpaid reader/consultants, who have anonymously evaluated essays and written wise and useful critiques.

Abstract

the twenty-five years since Legacy's founding can be measured in statistics: the journal comprises more than fifty issues, printed by four different presses, prepared by seven editors and a dozen or so editorial associates, aided by countless graduate and administrative assistants, not to mention the silent but absolutely necessary work of unpaid reader/consultants, who have anonymously evaluated essays and written wise and useful critiques. My first task is to thank you all. the hours these colleagues have devoted to Legacy are not unrewarded, even if they were unremunerated. the greatest reward of our work is traced in the academic genealogies of four generations of scholars who have devoted part or all of their intellectual energies to the journal. this intergenerational bond is evident everywhere--in citations and bibliographies, in prefaces and forewords, at conferences and in regional chapters of the Society for the Study of American Women Writers, and, in the issue before you, in the expressions of those who have written in celebration of the journal's anniversary. As we editors conferred about how best to mark this occasion, we agreed that we should try to represent those generations and invited a group of scholars who represented the founders
