Presence: A New Print Journal for Poetry and Poets
Blogalicious
Here’s news of a wonderful new journal dedicated to poetry.
Presence: A Journal of Catholic Poetry recently published its third annual issue. The journal is the brainchild of Mary Ann Miller, an English professor at Caldwell University. As I live near the university, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Mary Ann. She has for years been doing a wonderful job of introducing her students to poetry, often bringing in poets to work with her classes.
Mary Ann serves as editor-in-chief of the journal. The journal clearly reflects her generous spirit. By the way, don’t be misled by the sub-title into thinking that the journal is only about Catholicism and Catholic poets. It’s open to everyone with a love of poetry.
Take a look at the Table of Contents and you’ll see what I mean when I say that Presence is a very diverse journal.
The publication’s third issue has cover art by Rick Mullin, a talented local artist as well as a wonderful poet. The issue includes a short piece by Mullin about his art.
There is also a generous feature of a single poet, translations by such poets as Ilya Kaminsky and Garrett Hongo, and tributes to poets who have died.
This recent issue includes poems by such poets as Joseph Bathanti, Jim Daniels, Maria Mazziotti Gillan, and Sheryl St. Germain. There are also several interviews and an amazing Book Reviews section which includes 23 reviews.
You can Purchase individual issues online. The current issue is a very reasonable $12. The two earlier issues are only $8 each.
Here’s a sample poem by Chicago poet, Debra Bruce.
I look forward to more issues of Presence—and I’m not even Catholic, except in my taste for poetry. The issue I perused is strong and full of variety. This journal is a wonderful addition to the world of poetry.
