journals and collections of essays

The editors of Renaissance Studies invite articles on aspects of
Renaissance culture which cross several disciplines: the visual arts,
religion, literature, and languages of Europe during the period.

They are particularly keen to receive articles which deal with work from
regions which are less frequently commented on, including Spain, Portugal,
the Low Countries, Russia, and the Americas.

The editors of the annual interdisciplinary journal, *Nineteenth Century
Studies,* solicit submissions of cross-disciplinary essays, as well as
comparative studies-that is, studies that cross national boundaries and/or
range across the nineteenth century. Entering its sixteenth year of
publication, *Nineteenth Century Studies* publishes articles of interest to
scholars of the nineteenth century in America, Britain and the British
Empire, and Europe. Topics include, but are not limited to, literature,
art history, history, music, and the history of science and the social
sciences.

LINKS & LETTERS, the journal of the Departament de Filologia Anglesa i de
Germanística of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain, welcomes
exchanges with other language and literature journals around the world.

CALL FOR PAPERS

Submissions are invited for Issues 3 and 4 of 'Performance Practice', a
peer-reviewed journal, which deals with the processes of making creative
practical work for and with students. Papers concerned with
interdisciplinary investigations, mixed-media presentations and/or
installations are as appropriate to the philosophical 'brief' of
'Performance Practice' as are more ostensibly conventional
productions.

The Connecticut Review is soliciting articles and essays on literary and
cultural topics with a broad theoretical scope. The Connecticut Review seeks

increasingly preprogrammed theoretical perspective of many traditional and
not-so-traditional journals. Recent contributors have included Andrew
Benjamin, Geoffrey Hartman, Carol Jacobs and Andrew Parker.

Send two copies of essays (formatted in MLA style and no longer than 20 pages)
to Stuart Barnett, English Department, Central Connecticut State University,
New Britain CT, 06050.

Philological Quarterly is suffering from a dearth of
submissions and is eager to receive new articles for
consideration for prompt publication. We invite articles on
literature in both classical and modern languages and in all
historical periods, ancient, medieval, renaissance,
seventeenth and eighteenth century, romantic, Victorian,
modern and post-modern. All critical and theoretical
approaches are welcome, but we prefer articles written in a
readable and accessible style. We recommend 6000 to 12000
words although we also consider brief articles and notes on
specific topics.

Please feel free to crosspost the following and please excuse multiple postings.

CRITICAL SURVEY

The UK-based journal _Critical Survey_ is now entering its eighth year.
Previously the journal operated on a rolling themed issue format but, as of
this year, the format will change. The three annual issues of the journal
will now consist of: a modern issue; an early modern issue; and an eclectic
or guest edited issue. The editor for the early modern issue will be Andrew
Murphy and submissions should be sent to him at the address below.

Explorations in English Studies would like you to share recent research
with others in a stimulating collegial environment. Please submit a paper to

papers must include research and the use of outside sources. Please leave a
phone number where you can be reached for publishing rights information.
