Henry Street:
A Graduate Review of Literary Studies
Is still considering critical and creative
submissions for our upcoming special issue:
Henry Street 9.1
"Revivals, Revisions, Recoveries"
FINAL Deadline: December 15, 1999
Works that revise, revisit, recontextualize, or rewrite other texts
abound in literary history. Indeed, some theorize that such inter-
textuality, conscious or not, is literary history. More recently,
these practices have been crossing not only lines of era, genre,
and language, but ones of media as well.
Essays treating any aspect of past or current re-imaginings of literary
works are invited for this special issue. Topics might include but are no
means limited to Victorian revivals of Gothic, current revivals and
revisions of Oscar Wilde and Jane Austen, renewed interest in Renaissance
fairs or the New Globe Theatre, issues of canonicity and the recovery of
less "literary" genres, medieval or Celtic trends, and fin de
siecle/millenial looking back.
HENRY STREET
_Henry Street_, now entering its ninth year of publication, is an inter-
national forum for graduate students of English and related disciplines.
We invite contributions of original and scholarly contributions to current
research on literatures in English from all historical periods, material
culture, pedagogy, and critical theory. In addition to welcoming papers
from a broad range of critical perspectives, the journal is particularly
receptive to unconventional or personal approaches that open new avenues
of investigation in literary and cultural criticism.
Graduate students and recent graduates are encouraged to submit critical
and occasional essays, short fiction, and poetry. Chapters of theses and
conference papers are acceptable, provided they are sufficiently edited
and rigorous enough to stand alone as critical articles.
_Henry Street_ is indexed by the MLA and the Canadian Periodicals Index.
SUBMISSIONS
To be considered for publication, submissions must be double-spaced
throughout (including endnotes and works cited) and follow MLA guidelines
for citation and presentation. Submissions should not exceed 7000 words in
length. To facilitate our process of anonymous review, the author's name
should not appear on the manuscript.
Send two copies of submissions, and include a self-addressed return
envelope accompanied either by Canadian stamps or international reply
coupons. Manuscripts submitted without SASE cannot be returned. The
cover letter must indicate the author's degree status and university
affiliation.
