years, perspectives have changed. The Comparative Humanities Review is now

Plato's Symposium and its afterlives in multiple disciplines. Submissions
should be comparative in nature and written while the student is/was an
undergraduate. Panels will be chaired by Bucknell faculty and organized
into the following sessions:

Short essays (3,000 to 4,000 words) on practical and theoretical
approaches to teaching the novel, short story, or other forms of fiction

formats. Manuscripts in the fields of literature studies and creative
writing are equally welcome. All submissions undergo a double-blind,
peer-review process.
