Yale Literary Magazine

Yale Literary Magazine

The Yale Literary Magazine, founded in 1836, is the oldest literary review in the United States, and publishes poetry and fiction by Yale undergraduates twice per academic year.

For more than 160 years The Yale Literary Magazine, Yale's "Old Lady in Brown", has featured poetry, fiction, criticism, and artwork by Yale students. The first undergraduate magazine and the oldest literary review in the nation, the venerable "Lit" is at once proud of its tradition and responsive to its literary and artistic innovation.

A biannual publication of archival quality, the Lit reflects the vibrant literary and artistic communities at Yale. Each semester the number of submissions greatly exceeds what the magazine can accommodate, allowing the magazine to maintain its high editorial standards. A rigorous process guarantees the publication of the most mature work.
