ATLAS POETICA : A Journal of Poetry of Place in Modern English Tanka is off to an excellent start, with #1 available now. The journal will publish an 8.5" x 11" format of tanka/waka/kyoka and its variants, as well as sets and sequences, two times a year. All poems will be poetry of place, in other words, poetry in which the natural or cultural place plays a role.
Atlas Poetica aims at poetry in which the external and internal environments are connected, and which shows the diversity of the natural world and human experience. Tanka in both traditional and innovative forms are welcome, as are submissions in languages other than English as long as they are accompanied by English translation.
Poets should send up to 40 poems that have never been published and which are not on consideration elsewhere. Atlas Poetica has the capacity to publish longer sequences or prose work, but prefers to be queried first. Non-fiction articles, book reviews, announcements, and other articles of interest to the readers of tanka poetry of place are welcome.
International announcements can be in any language and need not be accompanied by English translation. For complete guidelines, visit AtlasPoetica.com.
