    A CALL FOR PAPERS

    for
    LIT
    Literature Interpretation Theory

    Editors in Chief
    Lee A. Jacobus and Regina Barreca
    University of Connecticut

    LIT publishes critical essays that offer rigorous textual analysis from a
    variety of theoretical approaches including, but not limited to: cultural
    and social criticism, political criticism, formalism, structuralism,
    semiotics, and hermeneutics. We welcome studies on feminist and gender
    issues, on ethnic criticism as well as on new historicism and old. The aim
    of the journal is to provide a forum for sometimes competing theoretical
    views. We publish criticism in English and do not restrict the journal's
    scope in terms of period or nation. We encourage essays that synthesize
    ideology, art, and aesthetics and we discourage essays that are exclusively
    explication. Essays accompanied by illustrations are especially welcome.
    LIT assumes that submission of a paper implies that no other journal or
    publisher is currently considering the paper for publication in the form in
    which it is submitted. Papers should be submitted in triplicate. All
    submissions will be acknowledged and decided upon within three months.
    Copyright remains in the possession of the journal.
    The MLA Style Sheet is the preferred guide to the preparation of papers.
    LIT welcomes illustrated essays. Photographs are to be original, preferably
    8 x 10 inches black and white glossies. Color illustrations should be in
    transparency form. It is the responsibility of authors to secure permission
    for publication from the original source of the illustration. Line drawings
    are to be original, no larger than 8 x 10 inches. All illustrations will be
    returned to author.
    We have no restrictions on length of articles. A 150-word abstract should
    accompany submissions of papers.
    Authors will receive page proofs of text and illustrations by airmail for
    correction. Authors must provide up-to-date addresses for the processing of
    proofs. Twenty-five free reprints will be provided the senior author on
    publication. Additional reprints may be ordered by completing the
    appropriate form sent with proofs.

    For questions or comments, e-mail Managing Editor Margaret E. Mitchell at
