If you would like to submit an essay, send an electronic copy to the M/MLA office at mmla@luc.edu. Papers should follow the MLA Style Manual, 3rd edition (2008). To ensure that the Journal is accessible to the broad membership, essays should be in English and, when text in another language is quoted, translations in English should be provided. PMLA is a useful source for examples of how to provide translations in MLA style.
