About the journal
ABOUT OVERLAND MAGAZINE
Overland, the most radical of Australia¡¯s long-standing literary/cultural magazines, celebrated its 50th year in 2004.
Publishing features, fiction, poetry, reviews, comment, artwork and opinion pieces, Overland is committed to engaging with important literary, cultural and political issues in contemporary Australia. It has a tradition of publishing dissenting articles with a political and cultural focus.
With ¡®temper democratic, bias Australian¡¯ as its motto, Overland is the only high-profile Australian literary magazine that sees the publication and advancement of new and marginal writers as part of its charter.
Produced quarterly, Overland was founded in 1954 under the editorship of Stephen Murray-Smith. At the time it incorporated The Realist Writer, the journal of the Melbourne Realist Writers¡¯ Group.
Contributors over the years include Peter Carey, Patrick White, Garry Disher, Elizabeth Jolley, Stuart Macintyre, Germaine Greer, Dorothy Hewett, Bob Ellis, Mark Davis, Sam Watson, David Williamson, Thomas Shapcott, Judith Wright, Rodney Hall, Gwen Harwood, Thea Astley, Alan Marshall, Xavier Herbert, Amanda Lohrey, Eric Beach, Bruce Dawe, Frank Moorhouse, Manning Clark, Humphrey McQueen, Christina Stead. Geoffrey Dutton, Max Harris, Chris Wallace-Crabbe, Nancy Cato, Frank Hardy, Lily Brett, Peter Porter, James McAuley, Geoffrey Serle, Graham Pitts, Desmond O¡¯Grady, Robert Adamson, Ian Turner, Jack Hibberd, Dean Kiley, Christos Tsiolkas, Alex Buzo, Martin Flanagan, Marcia Langton, Fiona Capp, Margaret Simons, Linda Jaivin and many others.
Yet Overland also gives a voice to the experiences that are excluded from the mainstream media and publishing outlets. The magazine has been part of an ongoing attempt to document lesser-known stories and histories, dissect media hysteria and dishonesty, debunk the populist hype of politicians, give a voice to those whose stories are otherwise marginalised, misrepresented or ignored, and point public debate in alternative directions.
OVERLAND PUBLIC LECTURES
The Overland Public Lecture Series commenced in 2001. Writers and public intellectuals with important things to say about Australian culture, literature and society present lectures that engage a broad audience and offer new and often provocative perspectives on cultural and humanitarian issues in Australia. Described by Peter Craven in the Age as ¡°an unambiguously splendid thing¡±, the Overland Public Lecture Series has been a vehicle through which public debate about Australian culture has broadened. Recent lecturers have included Brian Walters SC, Joel Deane, Natasha Cica, Veronica Brady, Mary Kalantzis, David Marr, Barry Hill, Martin Flanagan, Phil Cleary, Amanda Lohrey, Bob Ellis, Mark Davis, Bob Connell, Humphrey McQueen, Stuart Macintyre, Mischa Merz, Marcia Langton and Linda Jaivin.
The lecture series will be part of the Sydney Writers¡¯ Festival in 2008

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Overland accepts unsolicited manuscripts from Australian and overseas writers, although we are only able to pay those from Australia.
Those wishing to submit material are strongly urged to peruse a recent copy of Overland for a sense of the sort of material we publish.
Unsolicited manuscripts should be submitted in hard copy, and will be returned or replied to only if stamped self-addressed envelopes are provided. A submission form is available here. All care is taken, but no responsibility can be accepted for lost manuscripts.
We do not impose formal word limits and occasionally publish very long essays and stories, but potential contributors should be aware that space limitations make longer pieces harder to accept.
Overland will not ¨C unless in special circumstances ¨C accept submissions that have been previously published elswhere, including on the internet.
Overland endeavours to reply to submissions as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, the quantity received means that the process can take some months and we ask contributors to remain patient.

Overland favours hard-hitting articles with a strong cultural or political analysis. We particularly encourage submissions from female writers, activists and academics. Scholarly articles are refereed, and must be submitted in triplicate hard copy.
FICTION:
Poetry, fiction and memoir are also accepted.
EMAILED SUBMISSIONS will NOT be accepted.
