| For
each issue, the editors seek submissions of original sonnets and
sonnets in English translation, articles on the history of the form
and its contemporary use and variations, and explications of particular
sonnets, sequences, or sonneteers.
Authors are encouraged
to query before submitting essays, articles, or explications.
We welcome recommendations
for the re-printing of older sonnets that have been overlooked by
past criticism or which deserve a wider contemporary audience.
In addition, we seek
submissions for a special supplement consisting entirely of original
sonnets in English. This chapbook, available only to subscribers,
is published annually in November.
Be advised that our
subscribers include general readers as well as literary scholars;
close readings will typically be preferred to explications conducted
under one or another theoretical rubrics.
Submissions are reviewed
on a rolling basis, but materials must be received by August 31st
in order to be considered for the November 2008 chapbook or the
February 2009 journal. Manuscripts and inquiries may be sent by
email to sonnetjournal[at]gmail.com or by post to:
66: The Journal of Sonnet Studies
attn: Zachary Bos, Editor
95 Melville Avenue
Boston, MA 02124
Contributors
will receive two copies of the journal in which their work appears,
as well as a single copy of the next issue.
