Postscript

Since its appearance in 1967, Canadian-American Slavic Studies (CASS) has been one of the principal outlets for scholars doing new and cutting-edge work.Even a quick skimming of the table of contents over the past 54 volumes will find many seminal articles in the fields of Slavic history, literature, culture, folklore, religious studies, and other related fields.It is an impressive array that makes CASS one of the most important repositories of scholarship on things east of the Elbe.Most of the credit for that tremendous record belongs to Charles Schlacks, the founding editor of CASS, who turned over the journal to me in 2016 unofficially, and then officially in 2017.As the journal turns to only its third editor in more than half a century, we all -editors, contributors, and readers -must offer our collective земной поклон (our "bow to the ground") to the founder of this journal with all appropriate recognition and gratitude.During my editorship of volumes 50 (starting with no. 2), 51, 52, 53, and half of 54 (2016)(2017)(2018)(2019)(2020), CASS published some 89 articles, 3 research notes, 3 tributes, 7 review essays, and numerous book reviews (edited expertly by my friend and colleague, Erika Monahan).We also welcomed four guest editors to take the reins for single and double issues of the journal -issues
