History
editThe journal was founded by David Grossvogel, who served as the Romance Studies chair at Cornell.[2] Its first issue was published in the Fall of 1971, and Grossvogel served as editor until 1976.[2]
The name “Diacritics” was suggested by Romance Studies professor Emeritus Philip Lewis, who served from 1971 to 1987 as managing and general editor.[2]
