With apologies for cross-posting. ***
I am editing a forthcoming issue on the literatures of Assam (not merely Axamiyā literature) for *Muse India* (www.museindia.com), a literary e-journal with the primary objective of showcasing Indian writings in English and in English translation to a broad-based global readership. Equal importance will be given to Axamiyā and non-Axamiyā literatures of Assam in the proposed issue which intends to serve as an introduction to the literatures of Assam for audiences from outside the region. This is a call for submissions for that issue in the following fields: - Essays and articles, not exceeding 1500 words on important phases in literatures from Assam. - Original and translated poems. - Original and translated prose (fiction and non-fiction). - Interviews and conversations with writers. - Book reviews. - Any other literary compositions which do not fall within watertight categories. Especially welcome are translations from early and medieval periods of the history of Assam, and oral lore. *** *Submissions will be accepted only via email.* Original work in English must be pasted in the body of the mail, as well as attached as a .doc or .rtf file. Translated work must be sent in the same manner, and must be accompanied by a scanned copy of the original in .pdf or .jpg format. Translators must have permission of authors for all translated material. All submission and further query should be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The last date for submissions is 31 October 2007. *** Uddipana Goswami www.jajabori-mon.blogspot.com
