Graduate E-Journal

Interstice: Literary and Cultural Studies

Call for Papers

The Literature Division of the Graduate Institute of Foreign Literatures and Linguistics at National Chiao Tung University, Taiwan, is pleased to announce the founding of a new scholarly e-journal, Interstice: Literary and Cultural Studies. As a “contact zone” for cross-cultural intellectual exchange, the journal invites contributions from around the world. The inaugural issue will appear in December 2006. We welcome the submission of articles written in English by graduate students and emergent scholars on national and comparative literature, critical theory, film, and other areas of popular culture. Papers should be about 3000 to 6000 words, previously unpublished, and in MLA style. For submission, please email your work as an attachment, preferably in MS Word format, to the following email address: inter.stis@gmail.com

For the first issue, the deadline of submission is November 10, 2006. To facilitate the process of blind review, please include a cover page with contact information, the title of your paper, a 250-word abstract, and a brief biographical note. No name or identifying information should appear in your paper. For inquiry, please write to our graduate editor Sasha Lin at inter.stis@gmail.com.
