CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------

                           Now inviting submissions for


                              HENRY STREET  vol. 5.2

                      A Graduate Review of Literary Studies


  _Henry Street_, formerly known as _Critical Mass_, is in its fifth year.  
  We aim to provide an international forum for graduate students of English 
  and related disciplines.  The editors, themselves graduate students, are 
  committed to providing their colleagues with the opportunity to publish 
  their own work and to read their work of others in their field.

  _Henry Street_ invites contributions of critical essays, short fiction and 
  poetry from graduate students in English or a related discipline.  We also 
  welcome essays on pedagogy, the job market, graduate programs, and other 
  topics of interest to graduate students.  We aim especially to publish and 
  promote a species of criticism that, in the words of one of our 
  contributors, "combines the personal with the scholarly."

  _Henry Street_ is indexed by the MLA.
