submit to *queer.*
the temporality. issue
(re)actions – poetry – fiction – visual arts
*queer.*, the only intercollegiate undergraduate journal for critical
discussion around what it means to be queer., is accepting submissions
for a fall 2006 release.
*queer. *is published by Campus Pride (www.campuspride.net
<http://www.campuspride.net/>), the only national non-profit serving
LGBT and ally student leaders at colleges and universities across the
country.
*queer.* is an international publication with editors at nearly 20
undergraduate institutions across the US and Canada. It is distributed
to over 100 schools and its entire content is posted online at
www.queer-journal.com <http://www.queer-journal.com/>.
The theme for our winter 2008 issue is the TEMPORALITY.
We are particulary looking for pieces that engage with notions of queer
temporal imagination and construction. For example, how does a queer
relationship (or understanding) of time create new relations to
history? To the present? The future? Given that many demarcations of
time are defined through implicitly heteronormative events (marriage,
childbirth), what does queer time look like? queer. encourages its
contributors to be in conversation with the recent special issue of
/GLQ: A Journal of Lesbian and Gay Studies /(Volume 13, Number 2-3,
2007, Guest Edited by Elizabeth Freeman).
We primarily accept pieces in the following formats, but others are
welcomed as well:
* (re)actions – concise and powerful statements of about 800 words
reacting to the current issue’s theme by, for example,
complicating related questions, deconstructing them, or clarifying
them
* reflections – expressions in the form of poetry, fiction, and
visual arts and resonating with the current issue’s theme
* essays – academic pieces previously submitted for course credit
reflecting the issue’s theme
*queer.* is also continually accepting submissions for future issues.
*Submit your work for the INTERNET issue by November 15, 2007, by
e-mailing it to patricktmckelvey at yahoo.com
<mailto:patricktmckelvey at yahoo.com> Only submissions from
undergraduates will be accepted. All submissions must be in English or
accompanied by an English translation.*
If you are interested in being involved with *queer. *in an editorial
capacity, please e-mail Michael Amico, editor-in-chief, at
patricktmckelvey at yahoo.com <mailto:michael.amico at dartmouth.edu>.
