RHINO Translation Initiative call for submissions
RHINO Translation Initiative - Call for Submissions
As part of our ongoing interest in international poetry, RHINO magazine has begun a three-year effort to encourage submissions from poets around the Pacific, particularly those in language groups and/or from countries less frequently represented in North American poetry journals.
Each year of the initiative, we will target two or three countries for special outreach. In the first year, RHINO is focusing on poetry from the Philippines and Malaysia. Although the initiative is highlighting poetry-in-translation, poets from the Philippines and Malaysia are also welcome to submit original poetry in English. Of course, we will also continue to consider poetry-in-translation, as well as our usual English language submissions, by poets from all countries.
RHINO editors Angela Narciso Torres and YZ Chin will serve as special editors for outreach efforts to the Philippines and Malaysia, respectively.
Background:
RHINO is an award-winning, eclectic, independent, annual poetry journal in the US of more than 33 years' standing. Based in Evanston, Illinois (near Chicago), we publish poems, flash fiction/short-shorts (<1000 style="font-style: italic;">
Process for Submission:
Submissions must be sent between April 1-October 1, 2010. We accept online submissions through our electronic submissions manager at www.rhinopoetry.org. If mailing your submission, please include a cover letter with the poet's contact information, as well as the 3 – 5 poems to be considered. If submitting poetry-in-translation, include the poem in its original language along with the English translation.
Simultaneous submissions are accepted.
The entire RHINO editorial staff will make all decisions about submissions on the basis of each poem's effectiveness in English. For additional information, check our website.
