Author GuidelinesNew Literary History publishes essays on topics of theoretical significance within and beyond literary studies. The journal especially welcomes three types of contribution:
NLH follows a double-blind review process; for this reason, we ask authors to be scrupulous in anonymizing their submitted drafts. We cannot be responsible for any identifying information that remains in a submitted essay. Note that the journal receives a very large volume of contributions every year, and that our rate of acceptance tends to hover around 5%. For this reason we are unable to provide reader reports on most submissions. Endnotes are used rather than bibliographies, and Chicago style is preferred. Contributions of 6,000-10,000 words can be submitted by regular mail or email. NLH does not publish digressive endnotes. |
