- W2920366605 abstract "Editors' Note David Brauner (bio) and Debra Shostak (bio) There is a certain symmetry to the fact that our last issue as Executive Co-Editors is also the issue in which we bid farewell to Roth the man. It also coincides with the news that the journal has been accepted by Elsevier's Scopus, the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature, a gratifying endorsement of the status of Philip Roth Studies in the wider academic community. So for us this special memorial issue is an opportunity to reflect not just on everything that Roth has meant to us over the course of our careers, but also on the place the journal itself has occupied in our lives over the past five years. In doing so, we want to express our gratitude to all the folks at Purdue University Press, particularly Katherine Purple, our production manager, whose professionalism and efficiency during our term of office has been exemplary; to our Editorial Board, whose careful reviewing of submissions has helped maintain the standards of the journal; to Jacques Berlinerblau, our ebullient book editor; to our diligent, eagle-eyed Associate Editor and Managing Editor, Jessica Rabin and Christopher Gonzalez; to the officers of the Roth Society; and most of all, to you, our subscribers and readers. We would also like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to Andrew Gordon, who has lately passed away. A highly-valued member of the community of Roth scholars, Andy published a number of essays for us over the years. We will miss him. We are particularly pleased that this special memorial issue is our swan song because we think it captures beautifully what distinguishes Roth's writing: his audacity, fearlessness, and fierce intelligence; his stylistic brilliance, formal adventurousness, and ethical rigor; above all, perhaps, his aesthetic integrity—his fidelity to his own values as a writer. What struck us most forcefully, reading this wonderful collection of tributes from scholars young and not so young, established and emerging, is the peculiarly tenacious hold that Roth has exerted over our imaginations, the sense of intimacy and [End Page 1] personal investment that his work has generated. He has had a profound impact on our personal as well as our professional lives; he has pervaded our consciousnesses and spoken to us in our dreams. We have been inspired by his work to treat that work with an irreverent reverence and reverent irreverence. Last but not least, we are very proud that this issue features the final interview with Roth, conducted by Elèna Mortara. Roth may be dead but his works live on and we are confident that Philip Roth Studies will continue to thrive under the stewardship of Aimee Pozorski and Maren Scheurer. Aimee is of course one of the leading scholars in the field and Maren has published innovative and exciting work on Roth in recent years, not least in this journal. Together, they co-edited another recent special issue of the journal, so they already know the ropes. We wish them all the best for the future, happy in the knowledge that the journal couldn't be in better hands.
