It's less intimidating, the prose tends (I think) to be less dense.Renaissance Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06243095907452011303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1794978458772149149.post-65096677886319196372011-05-13T10:58:17.027-07:002011-05-13T10:58:17.027-07:00Sorry!

Was traveling Monday, and then Blogger was down for an epic length of time and prevented me from commenting.<br /><br />I'd say that from the perspective of the scholarly C.V., <i>Milton Studies</i> is unquestionably the more prestigious, if only because its acceptance rate is lower/its gatekeeping more elaborate. I do think the average quality of the work it publishes is higher, too--but I've read some fantastic work in <i>Milton Quarterly</i> and some lame-ass ones in <i>MS</i>, so there's definitely no way to assert that any given essay is inherently better/worse because of its venue.<br /><br />The other distinction I'd make is that <i>MQ</i> seems friendlier to shorter essays than does <i>MS</i>.<br /><br />(And as of last month, I am in possession of my first pair of running shoes.
