As we approach the 40th anniversary of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Poetry Association, the next issue of the\u00a0Eye to the Telescope <\/em>will\u00a0explore all things Arthurian<\/a>, thanks to our guest editor Adele Gardener<\/a>!<\/p>\n

From early epics to modern fantasy and science fiction, stories of the Round Table continue to fascinate.\u00a0Enter into dialogue with Celtic legends, medieval romances, Victorian and Pre-Raphaelite revivals, folk songs, or echoes of Arthuriana in a wide variety of times and places.\u00a0In addition to the traditional settings, the editor welcomes versions of Arthurian tales that intersect with the heroic, chivalric, or martial arts traditions of many cultures.\u00a0See an old character through new eyes or invent a new character encountering the familiar figures of the Arthurian mythos in the past, present, or future.\u00a0Time travelers and enchantresses are equally welcome, and less frequently seen viewpoints are encouraged.<\/p>\n

Please state in your cover letter the version and aspect of the Arthurian tradition you are responding to in your poem.\u00a0This editor is partial to both formal and free verse; be aware that she may inquire about the possibility of revisions before deciding whether or not to accept. Reprints are welcomed! May the road rise up to meet you on your quest!<\/p>\n
