Update: deadline extended
----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.
