Students learn about literary journal publishing through researching contemporary practices in the field and by editing content for the Eugene Lang College literary arts journal, which is designed and produced by students at Parsons. The editorial process includes developing goals for the journal, soliciting submissions, reading and evaluating works submitted, and responding to authors. Students also learn the basic vocabulary of journal production and publishing. Current trends in literary editing are discussed, including field trips to presses, organizations that support literary arts publishing, and class visits from a range of New York city based literary arts editors - from do-it-yourself practices, letterpress, and book arts, web-based journals, university and college-based publications, and journals with a larger, more mainstream readership in mind. This research and activity-related course is repeatable. The total number of credits a student can earn in an activity-related course is 24.
