Subscriptions & Commerce.

.

The Fortnightly Review is supported solely by its readers and by the sale of books.

.
If you are a reader of The Fortnightly Review’s New Series, there are simple ways to support our work.

1. Subscribe to The Fortnightly Review. We maintain this website for archival purposes; if you want to see what’s new, subscribe to our Substack! These subscriptions are free; however, if you wish to support our work monetarily you will find options on that platform to subscribe to the magazine for $5 US each month or $50 US yearly. It’s the best way there is of supporting our ongoing effort to extend not only the Fortnightly’s critical values but also G.H. Lewes’s promise, made on 13 May 1865, into contemporary cultural life:

The object of THE FORTNIGHTLY REVIEW is to become the organ of the unbiassed expression of many and various minds on topics of general interest in Politics, Literature, Philosophy, Science, and Art. Each contribution will have the gravity of an avowed responsibility.

Thus, in an age of digital excess and angry polemics, we strive to offer intelligent comment for open-minded readers. If you find something here that comforts by validating an already-fixed opinion or point-of-view, it is not by editorial intent. We rarely tweet and we snark not.

Odd VolumesThank you for this support. We welcome all comments and suggestions. Direct them to the editors: fortnightlyrevieweditors@gmail.com.

If you wish to propose an editorial contribution, please see this page.


Note: We support the work of the World Oral History Project, which is affiliated to the University of Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology and co-located at Cambridge and Yale. The World Oral Literature Project collaborates with local communities to document their own oral narratives, and aspires to become a permanent centre for the appreciation and preservation of oral literature. To earmark all or part of your donation, either use the button below or subscribe, then let us know your wishes by clicking here. To donate directly to the Project, click here.

2. Browse our catalogue of Odd Volumes. In 2013, with the publication of Stephen Wiest’s ScreedsThe Fortnightly Review began offering subscribers a collection of titles reflecting the diverse interests of the editors. We call our imprint ‘Odd Volumes‘, a salute to The Sette of Odd Volumes, a celebrated and long-lived association of bibliophiles founded in London in 1878 by Bernard Quaritch and others. (Our colophon is in fact borrowed from some of the Sette’s early printed pieces.) The list has grown considerably, adding 3-5 new titls each year.

These are noted and offered for sale here, but subscribers may choose a new title every year (see above).

3.Help us help others. We routinely receive requests for archival, publishing and research help from students, readers, writers, scholars, and others. We are limited in our ability to respond, but we certainly welcome ways of extending our usefulness to these readers. If you would like to help The Fortnightly Review expand its educational and publishing activities, a direct donation is the best way. Your donation can be processed securely by credit card by clicking this link. There is no tax advantage, however.

5. Just spread the word. If you know someone who is the kind of reader to whom the Fortnightly might appeal, tell them to visit us online! A Substack grows by word-of-mouth, and since this is only the Fortnightly‘s second website in 150 years, your recommendation can only help. It’s simple enough: just direct them to https://fortnightlyreview.substack.com/.
