Jamaica Journal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jamaica Journal is a periodical published by the Institute of Jamaica (IOJ) in Kingston, Jamaica. It publishes scholarly articles on the history, natural history, art, literature, music, and culture of Jamaica.

The Jamaica Journal's predecessor was the Journal of the Institute of Jamaica, founded in 1896. In 1967, the Jamaica Journal was founded by the IOJ as a quarterly journal, "to reflect the Institute's interest in the development and promotion of Jamaica's history, literature, science and arts".

In 2002, the Jamaica Journal temporarily ceased publication; it was relaunched in 2004 under a new editor, Kim Robinson-Walcott.
