The Common is a nonprofit biannual magazine based at Amherst College in Amherst, Massachusetts. The magazine publishes stories, poems, essays, and images centered around "a modern sense of place." [1]
History
The Common's prototype issue, 00, appeared in October 2010. In early 2011, editor Jennifer Acker obtained an investment from Amherst College in a literary magazine focused on the motif of place in fiction, poetry, nonfiction, and visual arts.[2] The magazine is published by The Common Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. At the magazine's inception, Amherst College provided an on-campus office, a website, funding for start-up costs, and the budget for a staff of student interns. [3] The College hosts The Common's offices in its Robert Frost Library.
Professors at the College, including William Pritchard and Pulitzer Prize winner Richard Wilbur, serve on the editorial board. The Common launched its first issue, 01, in April 2011.
Content and Editors
The Common has published new fiction by Lauren Groff, Fiona Maazel, and Sabina Murray, poems by Rafael Campo, Don Share, Honor Moore, and Mary Jo Salter. Its prototype issue included a piece by Jim Shepard. The magazine has also published the work of debut writers, poets, and photographers.[4] The magazine's running sections, in print and on its website, are Dispatches (short missives evoking a particular place and edited by Hannah Gersen), Reviews, and Features. Poetry Editor John Hennessey, Associate Fiction Review Editor Elizabeth Byrne, and Editor Jennifer Acker oversee the content of The Common.
