CFP: General Submissions for Journal of Narrative Theory
JNT publishes theoretically sophisticated essays that examine narrative from a host of critical perspectives. Of particular interest are history and narrative; cultural studies and popular culture; discourses of class, gender, sexuality, race, nationality, subalternity, and ethnicity; film theory, queer theory, and media studies; new historical, poststructural, or global approaches to narrative forms (literary or otherwise); along with essays that span or subvert epistemic and disciplinary boundaries. JNT is multi-genre, multi-period, multi-national.
Submission Guidelines:
Manuscripts should follow the latest edition of the MLA style manual. Recommended submission length is 25-35 pages (double-spaced with one-inch margins), excluding the Works Cited page. Keep footenotes to a minimum, and incorporate material into the main text wherever possible.
- Submit manuscripts to JNT@emich.edu as an email attachment in a word document format, omitting any references to the author in the attached essay to ensure blind review. Receipt of manuscripts will be confirmed on arrival.
- In the email itself, provide the author's contact information and the postal address to which manuscript may be sent for final review.
- The journal does not accept manuscripts submitted simultaneously to other publication venues.
- Authors are responsible for copyright permissions and fees for illustrations and/or extracts.
