Revista Sin Frontera: Exilio, espacios y culturas

The graduate students from the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at the University of Florida invite you to participate in the fourth edition of Revista Sin Frontera. This year, the topic is exile, space, and cultures. To be displaced by force or by choice is to change and adapt a culture to a new space. The interactions and confrontations that this particular movement triggers may be manifested through any artistic representation: literature, music, art, architecture, performance, and many others.

The objective of this issue of Sin Frontera is to provide a forum for new dialogue and reflection on these manifestations and to observe the impact that exile, emigration, diaspora, or displacements may have on the individual and on collective consciousness. Papers will be accepted in Spanish, English, and Portuguese.

To submit a paper, please follow these instructions:

• Literature, linguistics, art, and culture papers (10-20 pages; MLA or APA Guidelines)
• Books, films or music reviews (3-5 pages)
• Poetry (1-3 poems; 1.5 space; 12-point font)
• Short Stories (1-10 pages)
• Drama (1-3 Acts)
• Art pieces (photos in .jpg format; including a title)
• Photography (.jpg format; including title)

Please include an abstract (150-200 words) and a personal biography (120-150 words) with your submission.

All work should be sent via e-mail or post mail. If sent by mail, the work should be received in hard copy and a data CD. Please, use 8" x 11", double space, 1" margins and font 12 in all submissions, except for poetry.
