Call for papers Revue Nexilis - extension of deadline

Publié le par Sophie Rabau (Source : Revue Nexilis)

Call for articles:

Nexilis is an on-line journal of literary and cultural criticism for the 19thc Scholar in French literature, culture, art, comparative literature, and language pedagogy.

“Nexilis” means tied, weaved, intertwined in latin. The desire of this on-line review is to envision French cultural studies as a whole: art, literature, and culture, but also to create a “tie” between 19thc French scholars.

The mission of Nexilis is therefore two-fold: it will not only be an on-line journal where Graduate students can publish their work, it will also serve as a platform where 19th c Scholars can gather and make connections with people interested in the same authors, painters, moments in History, themes, etc.

The first issue of Nexilis will be dedicated to the topic of "ties, bonds" in the realm of art, literature (French and Comparative), and culture. Articles will deal with the "positive" ties, the ones that make you stronger, but also with the "negative" ties, the ones that keep you bound, imprisoned.

Nexilis welcomes creative submissions and proposals in French or in English. Please send an abstract of a maximum of 250 words, along with a cover letter indicating the title, the author's name, university affiliation, email address and telephone number to contact@revuenexilis.org no later than Saturday, October 25th, 2008. We also invite creative submissions, including short stories and poetry.

Authors will be notified by Monday, October 27th, 2008 of their acceptance, and articles will be due by Wednesday, November 26th, 2008. Articles should follow the MLA style and should not exceed 10 to 15 pages.

Deadline for abstract submission:  October 25th, 2008
