Connecticut Review seeks articles and interviews on a broad range of
cultural topics. The journal especially aims to provide a forum for
theoretically informed articles that do not fit the increasingly
pre-programmed rubric of most academic journals. Past contributors include
Andrew Benjamin, Geoffrey Hartman, Carol Jacobs, Alberto Manguel, and
Richard Wilbur. Connecticut Review is the recipient of the CLEJ's Phoenix
Award for significant editorial achievement and has been selected several
times for the Pushcart Prize and Best American Poetry. Please format
articles according to the MLA style sheet. Send two copies of work to:

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

The XAVIER REVIEW (established in its present form in 1980) is
undergoing a process of self-reflection and refurbishment in keeping
with the spirit of the new millennium. Our sense is that, in addition
to publishing high quality works on any topic, we still have interests
in creative and critical works on Southern literature, literature and
religion, Latin-Caribbean literature, and African-American literature,
areas which reflect some of the Xavier library's collections.
