A new blog (of sorts): Fresh Off the Press

I've begun a new page here on deinde which I hope others will find useful. It is in its preliminary stage, but at this point is usable and useful.

Basically, I've aggregated feeds and email alerts onto one page, which I call Fresh of the Press (this is the feed).

Currently, this feed will alert you to new issues of:

Aramaic Studies
Biblical Interpretation
Biblical Theology Bulletin
Criswell Theological Review
Currents in Biblical Research
Dead Sea Discoveries
Expository Times
Harvard Theological Review
Horizons in Biblical Theology
Journal for the Study of Judaism
Journal for the Study of the Historical Jesus
Journal for the Study of the New Testament
Journal for the Study of the Old Testament
Journal for the Study of the Pseudepigrapha
Journal of Biblical Literature
Journal of Semitic Studies
Journal of Theological Studies
New Testament Studies
Novum Testamentum
Scottish Journal of Theology


The amount of information that comes through is largely dependent on the publisher— so don't blame me (see my previous post for my rant and suggestions on this matter).

Also, if you are a publisher or the editor of a journal that currently has no alerting mechanism but for whatever reason don't feel like doing a blog feed or email alerts, you can use Fresh of the Press to alert the world with one easy email. Whenever a new issue comes out, you could simply send an email
with the TOC of your journal and any relevent links. The email will convert to a post in the feed. There are A LOT of biblical studies journals out there that have no alerting mechanism— hopefully this new feed and these 2 posts will encourage you to begin doing so.

If you are interested in posting your TOC's on this feed, please email me (danzac---at---gmail . com) for further instructions.
