Mon Jun 01 09:12:22 GMT 2009
* * *
The International Association of Literary Journalism Studies (IALJS)
is coming to the UK next spring. The fifth annual conference will be
held at Roehampton University, May 20 to 22, 2010, hosted by
Roehampton's Centre for Research in Creative and Professional Writing, ReWrite.
Literary journalism is defined as "journalism as literature" rather
than "journalism about literature". The association warmly welcomes
a wide range of topics and disciplinary frameworks, which include
explorations of writing practice as well as contextual research.

The CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS follows here:
LITERARY JOURNALISM STUDIES, a new peer-reviewed journal sponsored
by the International Association for Literary Journalism Studies
(IALJS), invites submissions of scholarly articles on literary
journalism, which is also known as narrative journalism, literary
reportage, reportage literature, "new journalism" and the nonfiction
novel, as well as literary nonfiction and creative nonfiction that
emphasizes cultural revelation. The journal is international in
scope and seeks submissions on the theory, history and pedagogy of
literary journalism throughout the world. All disciplinary
approaches are welcome. More information is available at
http://literaryjournalismstudies.org.
To encourage an international dialogue, the journal is also will to
consider publishing short examples or excerpts of literary
journalism accompanied by a scholarly gloss about a writer not
widely known outside his or her country. The example or excerpt must
be translated into English. The scholarly gloss must be between
1,500 and 2,500 words long and indicate why the example is important
in the context of its national culture. Together, both the text and
the gloss must not exceed 8,000 words in length. The contributor is
responsible for obtaining all copyright permissions, including from
the publisher, author and translator as necessary.
E-mail submission (as an MS Word attachment) is mandatory, and
submissions should be between 4,000 and 8,000 words in length,
including notes.. A cover page indicating the title of the paper,
the author's name and institutional affiliation, and contact
information must accompany all submissions. The author's name should
not appear on the required 250-word abstract or on the paper itself,
as all submissions will be blind reviewed. All submissions must be
in English and follow the Chicago Manual of Style. Please e-mail all
submissions and/or related queries to the editor at <(hartsockj /at/ cortland.edu)>.
