Agonist Spring 2020

Submission Guidelines
To be considered for publication in The Agonist we require:
• A page with your full name, your academic affiliation (if applicable),
address, email, and phone number.
• A short summary (200-300 words) sent together with your work, indicating
the topic of your submission.
• A 250-word bio, the length of your manuscript/submission, and a short
list of prior publications.
Please use biographical listings of current contributors as models. Essays
should be between 3,000 and 5,000 words.
Contributors are expected to check all typographical issues, such as italicizing
the titles of works of art, in the Word file. If there are issues regarding
the appropriateness of the text, those matters will be discussed with the
contributor. If there are proofing issues, the contributor will be notified to
make the corrections. Submitted texts will not be altered by us. The Agonist
does not return submitted manuscripts, accept unsolicited manuscripts,
or consider manuscripts that are under review elsewhere or that have been
previously published.
BOOK REVIEWS:
The Agonist accepts review copies of books on or related to Nietzsche (see
About) and will seek reviewers to write on them. Book publishers interested
in forwarding review copies can contact the editors at nceditors@nietzschecircle.com
or you can use our contact form. Please submit initially a proposal
for an essay, which must be original work by the submitting author. For
further details, please see Submission Guidelines below.
Any work received that does not follow the appropriate guidelines will
not be read. If you have any questions with regard to our guidelines or submission
policy, please contact us
HOW TO SUBMIT:
The abstract (300 words maximum) and the submission should be sent to:
nceditors@nietzschecircle.com. Once approved by the The Agonist Editorial

1. The Agonist uses the MLA style (see www.mla.org).
