Project MUSE was launched in 1995 by the Johns Hopkins University Press to offer the full text of JHUP scholarly journals via the world wide web. Johns Hopkins University Press has published with distinction in such disciplines as literary studies, classics, history, economics, political science, and the history of science and medicine. Project MUSE covers the fields of literature and criticism, history, the visual and performing arts, cultural studies, education, social sciences, mathematics, political science, gender studies, and many others. In 2000, Project MUSE enters its second phase of development with the addition of journal titles from other scholarly publishers. In general, most journals start with 1996, while Literary Theory & American Studies journals begin with the 1995 volume. Coverage for selected Project MUSE titles now begins with volumes as early as 1993.
