The South Carolina Review Volume 50.1, Fall 2017
August 1, 2017
The maiden issue of The South Carolina Review appeared in November 1968. Its cover listed only the month and year of publication followed by “Vol. 1 No. 1 $1.00” under a simple yet elegant banner featuring the review’s title. In a statement of editorial practice in this first issue, the founding editors aimed to publish writing that “clarifies, moves, provokes, and inspires.”
The cover of this issue returns to the design of its inaugural number as an homage to this ambitious editorial vision, which endures a half-century later.
