The Looking Glass: New Perspectives on Children's Literature invites scholarly submissions to all columns and sections for a special issue:
National Literatures Submission deadline: 1 March 2009 Publication date: May/June 2009
Critical, informative, and inquiring articles are welcomed for a special issue on National Literatures. As an international journal we have a particular interest in differing representations of national cultures, values, and images through children's and young adult literature. Questions and topics of interest include: Do national literatures reflect their cultures or shape them? How is patriotism variously represented in a nation's literary canon-does patriotism require the diminishment of Other nations or peoples? How are indigenous peoples represented in national literatures? Do indigenous literatures differ from or function as national literatures? Or both? How do national literatures function as external ambassadors, offering a nation's face to the world, or as internal ideologues, interpellating children and teens as model citizens?
Visit our home page and submit online: www.the-looking-glass.net.
The Looking Glass also invites submissions to the following:
* Alice's Academy, the scholarly refereed section (peer reviewed by at least two outside readers) (up to 7000 words)
* Emerging Voices and New Scholars, the section specifically designed for students and professors to work together in creating publishable scholarship (submissions must be made by a professor with the student's permission; up to 5000 words)
* Jabberwocky, serious pieces, edited but not refereed
* Curiouser and Curiouser, short and entertaining pieces on any and all facets of children's literature
Submissions on children's book publishing and technology and children's literature are also desired.
Please send all submissions to editor at the-looking-glass.net <mailto:editor at the-looking-glass.net><mailto:editor at the-looking-glass.net> and state for which column submissions are intended. Submissions to Jabberwocky should be between 2500 and 4000 words and conform to current MLA citation standards. Submissions to Curiouser and Curiouser and any other columns must be between 1000 and 3000 words. Please check our contributors' page (address below) for special topics and deadlines. (See also the reverse.) The Looking Glass cannot accept simultaneous submissions or previously published articles. Published articles will be posted on the journal's website for at least three months, after which time they will be archived online. For more information, please see:
