Wallace Stevens Journal Author Submission Guidelines
The
Wallace Stevens Journal
Article Submission Guidelines
The Wallace
Stevens Journal
welcomes submissions on all aspects of Wallace Stevens’ poetry and
life. Articles range from interpretive criticism of his poetry and
essays to comparisons with other writers, from biographical studies to
theoretical issues. Also welcome are previously unpublished primary or
archival material and photographs.
Manuscripts should be prepared
according to current MLA style, using Works Cited format and
parenthetical citation. The standard sources for quotations from
Stevens are Wallace
Stevens: Collected Poetry and Prose (Library of America,
1997) and Letters of
Wallace Stevens (Knopf, 1966; rpt. Berkeley 1996).
Authors should consult recent
articles to see typical content, standard form, and usual length. Most
manuscripts accepted for publication are twenty to twenty-five
double-spaced pages, but on occasion the journal publishes shorter or
longer pieces.
The journal also publishes poetry
related to or inspired by Wallace
Stevens, as well as book reviews, news and comments, and a current
bibliography of annual scholarship on Stevens.
Manuscripts may be submitted
electronically as attached documents or mailed in duplicate (printed
manuscripts will not be returned). Please provide full contact
information: name, address, phone, and e-mail.
Except for quotations from the
standard sources of Stevens, authors of accepted articles are required
to furnish photocopies of all quotations, with the passages clearly
marked, for verification. Title, author, copyright, and page number(s)
should be clear.
Authors should not quote whole
poems that are still under copyright
(1923 and after), and they should critically discuss quoted passages,
not merely use them as illustration.
