The Emerson Review, formerly The Scribe, was created at Emerson College in 1953. The literary publication's format has changed many times in the years since its inception, though it has remained an outlet for Emerson College students to both publish their work and learn how to run a literary magazine.

Recently, The Emerson Review has expanded its scope and become a publication in which anyone has the capacity to be published. Control of the publication remains in the hands of Emerson College students, and Emerson students are still welcome and encouraged to submit their creative work, but now The Emerson Review is happy to accept work from writers and artists throughout the country.

In the past, The Emerson Review has published established writers from the Emerson community, including Alden Jones, Peter Jay Shippy, Kathleen Rooney, and Gian Lombardo. Other notable contributors include beat poet and novelist Charles Bukowski and comedian (and Emerson College alum) Denis Leary.
