Call for Poetry/Essay Submissions
The Ireland Chair of Poetry Trust is delighted to open the call for submissions to a special commemorative anthology featuring the work of emerging Irish and Northern Irish poets.
The editors invite new/emerging poets to respond to this call by submitting work inspired by a mentor who has had a tangible impact on their life, work, imagination, themes, style and/or practice. Submissions may take the form of a single poem or a critical essay/reflection.
We invite new/emerging poets to respond to this call by submitting work inspired by a mentor who has had a tangible, direct or indirect, impact on their life, work, imagination, themes, style and/or practice. This can take the form of either:
— an original poem, inspired by one of a mentor’s poems/collections/oeuvre, including a short note (250 words) on why the work/poet that inspired it is particularly meaningful to you;
or
— a personal or critical reflection, essay, letter or other form of print media engaging with some aspect of a mentor’s practice, process, creative or critical thought in the form of lectures, talks, archival materials and/or personal interaction or correspondences.
