New Literary History
Author Guidelines

New Literary History publishes essays on topics of theoretical significance within and beyond literary studies. The journal especially welcomes two types of contribution:

1) articles that engage with literary and cultural theory, including concepts of period, genre, or style, questions of hermeneutics and the reading process, problems of representation, and the relations between literary studies and other
disciplines;

2) articles addressing general theoretical or methodological questions that are of interest to scholars in a wide range of fields. Contributors should bear in mind New Literary History’s international and intellectually diverse readership.

Endnotes are used rather than bibliographies. Chicago style is preferred. Contributions should not exceed 9,000 words, including notes, and are accepted by regular mail or e-mail.
