The new issue of the Journal of the History of Ideas, the flagship academic journal for intellectual history, is hot off the presses this month. I thought you might be interested to see the table of contents. You can read all issues since 2005 as a full-text e-Journal, using WSC’s Academic Search Premier database through the library catalog, if you want to read more.

Here’s this month’s table of contents – Journal of the History of Ideas Vol. 71.1 January 2010
