WHAT DOES ‘THE ICONOCLAST MEAN’?<br />
‘Iconoclasm’ is writing which has a sharp opinion, and takes down another point of view. It attacks<br />
settled beliefs and opinions.<br />
An iconoclast is someone who writes it.<br />
WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO CALL IT THIS?<br />
<strong>The</strong> magazine existed last year, under the same name. You’ll have to ask the previous editor for the<br />
back story! I decided to keep it as it has a nice ring, and it’s always good to have a meaningful name. A<br />
magazine– especially a sixth form one– should tackle important issues and suggest a different point<br />
of view– which is summarised in our name. Also, I thought it might be rude to change too many<br />
things about the magazine!<br />
WHAT EVEN IS IT?<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Iconoclast</strong> is a way for everyone in the Sixth Form to get their opinion across about matters they<br />
care about. You’ll see the range of articles– from serious political commentaries to amusing Christmas<br />
gift guides. <strong>The</strong> beauty is that it’s accessible to everyone– so whether you want to write about an<br />
issue you feel passionately about, or just want to read what people are saying, you’re bound to love<br />
it!<br />
HOW CAN I WRITE AN ARTICLE?<br />
Anyone is welcome to write in <strong>The</strong> <strong>Iconoclast</strong>. If you have an idea for an article, bash out 350-900<br />
words and email it to iconoclastbse@gmail.com or speak to me to help develop it into a Pulitzer Prize<br />
worthy piece.<br />
