Abstract

With this issue of JLS, we are pleased to launch a new section of the journal devoted to translation. We are especially interested in receiving short submissions featuring the work of young, rising authors. Our journal aims to highlight their works and expand their reach beyond the Lusophone world, as well as enhance our readers’ curricular materials and pedagogical resources. We accept submissions in poetry, short fiction and excerpts of longer fictional works. Submissions should include the original text (for evaluation purposes), bibliographic reference to the original publication, translation, as well as translator and author bios (150 words each). Translators are required to secure written permissions prior to submission.
