CALL FOR PAPERS
===============
Henry Street:
A Graduate Review of Literary Study

Invites submissions for our upcoming general issue


Henry Street 8.2
Deadline: June 1, 1999


_Henry Street_, now in its eighth year of publication, is an inter-
national forum for graduate students of English and related disciplines.
We invite contributions of original and scholarly contributions to current
research on literatures in English from all historical periods, material
culture, pedagogy, and critical theory. In addition to welcoming papers from
a broad range of critical perspectives, the journal is particularly
receptive to unconventional or personal approaches that open new avenues of
investigation in literary and cultural criticism.

Graduate students and recent graduates are encouraged to submit critical and
occasional essays, short fiction, and poetry. Chapters of theses and
conference papers are acceptable, provided they are sufficiently edited and
rigorous enough to stand alone as critical articles.

_Henry Street_ is indexed by the MLA and the Canadian Periodicals Index.
