具体介绍

Contemporary Literature publishes scholarly essays on contemporary writing in English, interviews with established and emerging authors, and reviews of recent critical books in the field. The journal welcomes articles on multiple genres, including poetry, the novel, drama, creative nonfiction, new media and digital literature, and graphic narrative. Contemporary Literature published the first articles on Thomas Pynchon and Susan Howe and the first interviews with Margaret Drabble and Don DeLillo; it also helped to introduce Kazuo Ishiguro, Eavan Boland, and J. M. Coetzee to American readers. As a forum for discussing issues animating the range of contemporary literary studies, Contemporary Literature features the full diversity of critical practices. The editors seek articles that frame their analysis of texts within larger literary historical, theoretical, or cultural debates.

Contemporary Literature Submissions

Contemporary Literature seeks scholarly essays on post-World War II literature which offer scope, supply a new dimension to conventional approaches, or transform customary ways of reading writers.

Contemporary Literature also seeks interviews that focus on an author’s writing, pursue and elaborate a line of questioning and response, and provide insight into central aspects of the writer’s significance. Submitted interviews should not duplicate material available elsewhere in the author’s essays or in other interviews.

Style

We prefer a length of 25-35 pages, twelve-point type, double-spaced throughout.

Procedures

As of January 6, 2012, Contemporary Literature will be using a Web-based submission system. Our system will ask you to register, and then you may submit your manuscript electronically.

The link to Contemporary Literature’s submission website is:

http://conl.msubmit.net/

We ask that authors use Word format and put identifying information such as name or institutional affiliation only in the cover letter; include full contact information in the cover letter. The editors cannot review manuscripts that are simultaneously under consideration elsewhere and cannot assume responsibility for loss or damage of any work submitted. All details should conform to those recommended by the most recent edition of the MLA Handbook.

Review

Manuscripts may be submitted at any time; the review process generally takes 4-6 months.

Questions about review may be addressed to CL@english.wisc.edu.
