Saraba
Magazine is accepting short fiction, poetry, creative non-fiction, and excerpts
which reflect the intricacies of legalism and justice.
The
focus in the 12th Issue of Saraba
magazine is Justice.
According to the publisher, Emmanuel
Iduma: “…Beginning with the premise that Justice is often stereotyped within a
legal regime, and the evident tethered quality of such confinement… And going
further to consider broad-ranging ethical and neo-ethical implications of
rights, jurisprudence, politics, social activism, intellectual property,
dispute resolution, etc. etc.”
Guiding questions include:
How can the intricacies of legalism be considered in
aesthically artistic ways?
Is Justice an imagined word?
Interested
writers who are unsure about their work are advised to send queries to the
Managing Editor of Saraba Magazine. Submissions can be made through their
