Ahsahta Press (Department of English Literature)

Ahsahta Press, a not-for-profit literary publisher, was founded at Boise State University in 1974 to preserve the best works by early poets of the American West, including many underpublished women poets. Beginning with the works of "Objectivist" writer Norman Macleod in 1975, poetry by Peggy Pond Church, H.L. Davis, Hazel Hall, Gwendolen Haste, Haniel Long, Genevieve Taggard and others was restored to print. Ahsahta Press editors Dale Boyer, Orvis Burmaster, and Tom Trusky soon added works by contemporary Western poets to their list, including David Baker, Linda Bierds, Richard Blessing, Wyn Cooper, Gretel Ehrlich, Ken McCullough, and Carolyne Wright. The Modern and Contemporary Poets of the American West series was continued until 2002, when The New Series was established under the editorship of Janet Holmes. It comprised 56 titles, of which 45 are contained in ScholarWorks.

Txalupa: A Basque Studies Journal

Txalupa

Welcome! Ongi Etorri!

Txalupa* is an online journal that publishes undergraduate/graduate student and non-academic contributions to the study of the Basques.

It is the “sister” journal to BOGA, the professional Basque Studies Consortium Journal, a multi-disciplinary, peer-reviewed, open access online journal that publishes the work of professional scholars at the PhD level. “Boga” means “rowing” in Basque.

Both Basque journals have adopted the concept of “rowing together” toward common goals. Symbolically, Txalupa is the smaller rowboat to the mighty Basque rowing boat, the trainera, that competes in regattas (estropadak). Both Txalupa and BOGA represent the ideal of working together to support, encourage, and inspire learning about the Basques.

*Txalupa is pronounced “CHAH-loo-pah”
*BOGA is pronounced “BOH-gah”

Western Writers Online (Department of English Literature)

Western Writers Online was a short-lived peer-reviewed journal and research hub devoted to authoritative, accessible scholarship on the writers of the North American West. Between 2013 and 2015 we published original, peer-reviewed articles and links to resources illuminating the lives and works of western authors. In 2015, we migrated our four scholarly articles here to Boise State University’s Scholarworks for archiving. Articles are available for free download by clicking on titles below. Western Writers Online was sponsored by Boise State University, a project of the Hemingway Western Studies Center and the BSU Digital Humanities initiative. WWO inherited the scholarly mission of the Boise State University Western Writers Series (1972-2006), a publisher of booklet-length introductions to western writers. WWO editors were Tara Penry (Boise State University), Donald Barclay (University of California, Merced), and Jennifer Adkison (Henderson State University).
