Acknowledgements
I would like to thank, first off, Owen Temby for taking an interest in my work and for hatching the idea of this issue, as well as both Owen and his co-editor of the journal, Harold Bérubé, for trusting me with the job of assembling it and providing me with valuable advice. Harold was especially helpful in advising on the French-language papers. Thanks to all the authors who took the time to write and submit papers, including those whose papers were not deemed right for the issue, and to all the peer reviewers, whose assessments were essential to the process. And I would like to offer a special thank you to my colleague Richard Harris, a scholar with a similar name but a very different, far more accomplished academic resumé, who, promptly and unhesitatingly, provided me with the benefit of his extensive experience at several critical points along the way.
