Oregon Historical Quarterly

Aims & Scope

The Quarterly welcomes articles and essays about the history of Oregon and the historical Oregon Country, including manuscripts dealing with history and historiography, folklore, art, literature, sociology, anthropology, and scientific fields. OHQ works to amplify the knowledge and perspectives of people whom government policies, historical institutions, and academic practices have previously silenced. OHQ also encourages submissions that engage new scholarly perspectives and approaches to all relevant subjects, even ones that have been widely explored in the past. OHQ seeks manuscripts that offer scholarly analysis of the past, drawing on a mix of both secondary and primary sources. All manuscripts published in OHQ should make a case for historical significance, while full-length research articles make more complex arguments that are in conversation with the work of other historians and scholars. OHQ asks authors to attend to context, particularly regarding issues of race, class, gender, and place, and urges those whose work focuses on a history of the dominant culture to go beyond acknowledging exclusion by incorporating diverse perspectives into their work. OHQ requires appropriate recognition of Indigenous relationships to places under study by its authors.
