Studies: An Irish Quarterly Review is an Irish scholarly journal established in 1912, with its first issue published in March 1912. It is published by Messenger Publications for the Jesuits of Ireland.[1] Its current editor, appointed in 2021, is Dr Dermot Roantree, of the Irish Jesuit Communications office. He is the first lay editor of the journal.

Other editors have included P. J. Connolly S.J.(from 1916 to 1950), Fergus O'Donoghue S.J. (2001–2011)[2] and Bruce Bradley S.J.(2011–2021).[3][4]

Founded in 1912, it was seen as a replacement for The New Ireland Review (1894–1911), and the earlier Lyceum (1887–1894). Among the founders were UCD Professors Thomas A. Finlay SJ (Professor of Philosophy and Economics, who also founded the New Ireland Review and Lyceum) and Timothy Corcoran SJ (Professor of Education). Alfred O’Rahilly, who was training to be a Jesuit, was also instrumental in its founding and contributed many articles to it.[5]
