The New Quarterly is a literary magazine based in Waterloo, Ontario in office space donated by St. Jerome's University.[1][2]
History and profile
The New Quarterly was established in 1981.[2] The magazine is published on a quarterly basis.[2] It publishes Canadian poetry, prose, and interviews with established writers. However, its mandate is to encourage and nurture new and emerging talent. The magazine tries to strike a balance between a serious and playful tone, above all celebrating literature. Each issue is given a loose theme; for example, "In which science becomes metaphor, poets don lab coats...", "Something About the Animal", and "Fathers, Mothers, Lovers & Others".[3]
The magazine has won several national magazine awards,[4] including the Gold Medal for the fiction by Tamas Dobozy in 2014.[2] Writing from past issues has been nominated for Canadian National Magazine Awards,[5] and McClelland & Stewart's Journey Prize.[6]
