Over a century ago, Modern Language Notes<\/em> (MLN<\/em>) pioneered the introduction of contemporary continental criticism into American scholarship. Its reputation for high standards and excellent quality continues today. Published by the Johns Hopkins University Press, MLN<\/em> puts out five issues each year: four on critical studies in modern languages (the Italian, Hispanic, German and French issues) and one issue of recent work in the field of comparative literature. MLN<\/em> has been the winner of the Council of Editors of Learned Jouranls Phoenix Award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Past issues can be consulted at\u00a0Project MUSE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Submission Guidelines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The 2024 French issue of MLN <\/em>invites original contributions, in English or in French, to a special issue entitled \u201cPassage to the Nineteenth Century<\/em>\u201d edited by Daniel Desormeaux in collaboration with the editorial board. We invite authors to explore the theme of \u201cpassage\u201d and its implications in French and Francophone literatures and cultures, in ways that transcend beliefs in the nineteenth century as a homogeneous landscape limned by traditional academic discourses. We encourage transversal, comparative, and global perspectives that engage with particular concepts of passage through literary texts, artistic production, and case-based expressions of historical and cultural norms. We know, for instance, that nineteenth -century French literature was open to broad spaces of Francophone passage: Louisianans, Africans, Quebecers, Asians, Acadians, and West Indians were all actively present at the heart of the Romantic period. Likewise, the concept of passage was integral to some of the major schools of thought and myriad movements that shaped the nineteenth century. Such passages\u2014recognized, neglected, misunderstood, or forgotten\u2014make the nineteenth century a bulwark against historical obsolescence and literary confinement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consistent with the journal\u2019s practice, submissions will be accepted after double-blind review. Authors must follow all provided submission guidelines. The journal does not accept translations, in either language, of previously published work. Full compliance with all deadlines is a requisite for publication.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
