'Few', says Thomas Traherne, 'believe the soul to be infinite' yet infinity 'is the first thing naturally known'. If 'a man' is 'born deaf & blind', he 'apprehends infinite space, infinite darkness' & 'thinks not of wall & limits till he feels them & is stopped by them.'

I learned so much from the brilliant organizers of and participants in this event. There is so much exciting work happening in early modern editing right now, and I left with a lot to think about and a tremendous amount of hope about editorial futures!

This issue wouldn't have happened at all without younger scholars working in exciting ways at the margins of the early modern canon. ELR continues to encourage submissions on race-thinking and related topics across our period. A link, again: journals.uchicago.edu/toc/el…

I'm word-oriented, obscurity-loving human. I found a home for myself in early modern studies, where those core traits can be oriented towards ethical, pleasurable communal work. My new book rethinks 'stupidity' and 'pedantry' and 'nonsense' to share that orientation.

Issue 54.2 is, in other words, an excellent example of what makes @_ELRJournal an expansive, eclectic, and inclusive forum for new research. We hope you'll read, and learn, and continue to think of us as a possible home for your work. Keep an eye out for Issue 54.3!
