Postmodern Culture Call for Reviews: Deadline 15 November 2003
REPLY TO: geyh_at_yu.edu

_Postmodern Culture_ is looking for reviews of recent books, films, CDs,
plays, TV shows, concerts, sporting events, performances, exhibitions,
conferences and conventions, happenings, and so forth, for the January
2004 issue. Reviews should be approximately 2000-3500 words long and
should follow the journal's format guidelines below.

For the upcoming January 2004 issue, reviews should be submitted by 15
November. A selection will be made at that time. All correspondence will
be answered and all submissions will be given careful consideration. We
regret that we are unable to provide review copies to our reviewers.

The current issue of _Postmodern Culture_ is available on the web at
http://jefferson.village.virginia.edu/pmc/

Formatting guidelines and a list of suggested titles are to be found below.

Send reviews, proposals, or queries to Paula Geyh at geyh_at_yu.edu

FORMAT GUIDELINES FOR _PMC_ REVIEWS

Reviewers are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the journal and its
review section in particular before submitting reviews. The current issue
of _Postmodern Culture_ can be accessed on the Web at
http://jefferson.village.virginia.edu/pmc/

You can save us a good deal of work by following these guidelines:

Reviews should generally run between 2000 and 3500 words, or about 8-14
ordinary manuscript pages. Each review should be accompanied by a brief
(3-5 line) bio of the reviewer.

Set margins to half-inch left, two-inch right, and set your font to Courier
10cpi (or any 10cpi, non-proportional font). This is very important, as it
prevents too many characters on a line. Macintosh/Apple users, however,
should use Times Roman (or something similar) rather than
Courier, which creates glitches when read by PCs.

Put a title at the top of the first page, and under it your name,
institutional affiliation, email address, a fax number at which you can be
reached, and mailing address. Center these lines.

Below this, indicate the work reviewed as follows:

Review of
Author, _title_. City: Publisher, Date.

Indent (to 1") the first line of each paragraph and all lines of set-off
quotations.

Single-space the document, but use double spacing between paragraphs.

Use _this_ for underlining titles, *this* for bold print or emphasis,
%this% for foreign words, and ^this^ for superscript. Notes should be
indicated in the text by ^1^ (and so on), and then again, at the end of the
document, by ^1^ (and so on), followed by the text of the notes themselves.
Footnotes created using word-processing commands will not transfer into our
formatting.

Footnotes and Works Cited page, if any, should follow MLA format.

Page references in the text, if any, should not be preceded by p., pp., or
any other notation; use just the page number itself.

Send your submission to the review editor, Paula Geyh, by e-mail to
geyh_at_yu.edu, not to the _PMC_ offices. Submissions should be sent as
e-mail attachments in either Word or Word Perfect (if using some other
word-processing program, save the document in ASCII).
