Journal Has Heart, But Not Without Faults; Review Of December, Spring/Summer 2018, Craig Ledoux

The Review Review

It is a sense of unease, a creeping evil, that december brings front and center to the Spring/Summer issue of 2018. The cover image, stitched woolwork by Lisa Ann Auerbach, depicts a cobwebbed bookcase, half full of books on wealth and deal making, written by and for the current president. On the bottom shelf, a revolver is wedged between Think Big and Kick Ass and The America We Deserve. Above, two books by Adolf Hitler—which the president reportedly owns—are bookended by a handgun. In her artist’s statement, Auerbach says she made the piece “before the election, back when everyone …

Esteemed Lit Mag Charts Wide Experience Of Human Nature; Review Of Five Points, Winter 2015 - 2016, Tripp Reade

The Review Review

Shall I begin with the Five Points 17.1 contributor’s list? Will you want to know that these pages are spangled with NEA, Guggenheim, and Rockefeller fellowships, Pushcart, Library of Congress, and AWP prizes, magazine editors, professors, and poets-in residence? That the list of their published chapbooks, collections, short stories, and novels would consume the rest of this review if I let it? Or will it be better to turn aside, into a consideration of the issue itself? The latter? By all means, then.

Esteemed Australian Lit Mag Brims With Dynamic Culture; Review Of Meanjin, Winter 2014, Amy Clarke

The Review Review

As the opening editorial points out, Meanjin began as a poetry magazine nearly 75 years ago, and it continues to count the verse-driven art as its lifeblood. The poems in this edition are scattered throughout, running like veins through the entire edition, keeping the pulse and purpose of the magazine always at the forefront of the reader’s mind. Varying in style and composition, full of free verse and experimental forms, these poems are written by seasoned professionals and burgeoning artists alike. Meanjin Volume 73 begins with several brief articles under the heading, Perspectives, which explore the topics of modern day …

A Place For The Offbeat; Review Of Jokes Review, Summer 2018, Kim Jacobs-Beck

The Review Review

Some writers specialize in humor or in the offbeat. Even those who do not sometimes play with the form. Jokes Review wants to see your funny poem or offbeat piece of fiction. This is a new journal, started in summer 2016, published biannually online and in print. Editors Peter Clarke, Matt Kramer, Mark Dwyer and Erica Stumpe say that their vision is to “promote writers and artists whose work just took a wrong turn and went ever-so-gracefully off the deep end.” They accept all literary genres and visual art, and encourage experimental, hybrid, humorous, and “scraps” of writing, as well …

Where Are The Female Lit Mag Editors? Here., Danielle Lazarin

The Review Review

What has always stuck with me about the VIDA count isn’t the statistics themselves—horrid but not, if you’re from any underrepresented group, shocking—but the discussion, mostly anecdotal, of how women are not repeat submitters to literary magazines; men are more likely to send out again once they’ve been rejected. This was me: I have many kind rejections, years old, that say “please send again,” or “we’d like to see more work,” and yet, I didn’t.

Examination Of The Evolution Of Multi-Percussion, Thomas Alexander Robertson

Theses: Doctorates and Masters

The twentieth century belonged to percussion. In previous centuries, percussion performed a supporting function with its primary role being to accentuate chordal changes and reinforce the beat. By the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries orchestras expanded in size and instrumentation with percussion taking on a more prominent role, particularly in the works of composers such as Debussy, Stravinsky, and Mahler. It was at this moment in time that percussion assumed a new and unique role to express changes in colour and timbre, alongside its rhythmic function. The percussion repertoire of the twentieth century reflected the Zeitgeist, and composers exploited …
