History

edit

The journal began in 1979 as a quarterly newsletter, Quondam et Futurus: Newsletter for Arthurian Studies, published with support from Birmingham-Southern College and edited by independent scholar Mildred Leake Day of Gardendale, Alabama.[1]

Henry Hall Peyton III, a professor at Memphis State University, founded a similar newsletter, Arthurian Interpretations, in 1986. In 1991 the two publications merged to become the quarterly journal Quondam et Futurus: A Journal of Arthurian Interpretations, with Peyton as editor. In 1994 the journal was renamed Arthuriana.[2]
