About the journal

The minnesota review is a literary and cultural studies journal. A special emphasis is placed on politically engaged criticism, fiction and poetry. Issues are often themed, recent issues have examined the nature of academic publishing, academic celebrity and "smart" working class kids' experiences as adults or children within the educational system.
The minnesota review originally published avant garde fiction, poetry and graphic work. Beginning with ns 18, the review began to acquire its politically consciousness reputation, particularly Marxism.
Jeffrey J. Williams, currently publishes the review from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pa. and has moved the journal from an exclusively Marxist emphasis to a broader literature & cultural studies emphasis.
Instructions to Authors
the minnesota review, a journal of literary and cultural studies, invites submissions for a special issue on animals and animal studies: THE FERAL ISSUE.
Our goal is to reflect on the state of animal studies now and on directions for the future, as well as to expand the conversation about animals in the context of a journal devoted to cultural politics. Essays may address the contemporary moment or any time in history, and we welcome contributions from any discipline or critical perspective.
We hope that contributors will take advantage of the several genres minnesota review publishes:
- Revaluations short essays that ask readers to reconsider a person, movement or text, and its continuing relevance or lack thereof.
- Provocations short essays that take a position or attack received opinion.
- Review Essays essays that discuss a group of books signaling a trend or that review one book, indicating its position in a larger context.
- Interviews with scholars or activists who are important to the field of animal studies.
- Poetry and short fiction.
the minnesota review is known for publishing shorter, sharper commentary than many other scholarly journals, so we encourage potential contributors to visit our website to get a sense of the style of writing in our journal and to see examples of each genre.
Email editors@theminnesotareview.org with queries or proposals by April 1, 2009.
Manuscripts should be submitted no later than May 1, 2009.
