Eloquentia Perfecta Journal
Eloquentia Perfecta (E.P.) is a publication for excellent student writing from Texts & Contexts (ENGL 2000) courses across Fordham’s campuses. We are thrilled to serve as a venue to highlight students’ hard work.
E.P.’s editorial board will consider any written submission from a Text & Contexts course. Publication preference will be given to thesis-driven essays or focused close readings, though we will also consider creative writing pieces. There is no minimum page requirement for submission. MLA citation is preferred.
