Contributions call to the Literary Issue of Philippine Studies



This is for the literary issue of the 53rd volume of Philippine Studies in 2005. The Philippine Studies literary issue is a tradition begun when Gilda Cordero Fernando edited the first one in 1965. Two other issues followed: 1985, edited by noted fictionist Alfredo Navarro Salanga; 1995 edited by poet-critic Emmanuel Torres.



Call for contributions in the following genres: poetry, short story, creative non-fiction, and one-act play. Works must be:



1. unpublished



2. written in English, Filipino, or in the other Philippine languages (with accompanying English or Filipino translations for those written in languages other than English and Filipino)



3. must not exceed 15 pages



All entries/contributions will be refereed.



Dr. Soledad S. Reyes, the Editor for the Literary Issue, describes what it hopes to achieve:



"The 2005 literary issue hopes to feature the creative works of our country's writers that illustrate both the thematic and technical concerns that have preoccupied them since the 1990s. As importantly, it seeks to help establish the parameters against which future literary and cultural historians could view this past decade, certainly one of the most troubled moments in our history."



Submission of contributions should be sent to Ms. Tina Castro, Philippine Studies, Belarmine Hall, Ateneo de Manila University, P.O. Box 154, Manila 0917.
