ARCHIPELAGO, Issue Three (Clutag Press, 2009) |
Announcing the publication of ARCHIPELAGO Issue Three, available in late February / early March 2009
Clutag Press is delighted to inform you that the third issue of ARCHIPELAGO is now available.
The third issue of ARCHIPELAGO embarks on rough seas in a troubled world. It does so once again in the spirit of Herman Melville’s character Ishmael, who shipped aboard the doomed Pequod, metaphor for America and the western enterprise. Ishmael called his whaling voyage ‘a sort of brief interlude and solo between more extensive performances’ : namely a presidential election and a ‘Bloody Battle in Afghanistan’. So it is for ARCHIPELAGO. Our voyage is a brief interlude, a cry in the wilderness, across the waste of waters, in the wake of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the luxury yacht Climate Change. Undaunted we offer celebratory interactions with landscape and nature, history and remembrance, by both writers and visual artists, including: Norman Ackroyd, Niamh Clancy, Tim Dee, Ivor Gurney (represented by five hitherto unpublished works), Michael Longley, Peter McDonald, Robert Macfarlane, Osip Mandelshtam, John Montague, Les Murray, David Nash, Bernard O’Donoghue, Heather O’Donoghue, Patrick Parrinder.
Clutag Press is also delighted to draw your attention to the creation of a new premium
MA programme based around the interests and ideals of ARCHIPELAGO called
NATURE, WRITING & PLACE at the University of Exeter's Campus at Tremough
in Cornwall.

ARCHIPELAGO, Issue Two (Clutag Press, 2008) |
Announcing the publication of ARCHIPELAGO Issue Two, available April 2008
Clutag Press is delighted to inform you that the second issue of ARCHIPELAGO is now available.
To speak geographically, this issue ranges from Donegal, Derry and Antrim to Scotland, via Galloway, Skye and Cromarty, to descend into England at Filey Brigg. It delays a few days to explore the Wash (neither sea nor land), then puts out again to round the Norfolk and Suffolk coasts. As it progresses it turns the archipelago this way and that, celebrating it across a host of literary, artistic, linguistic, historic, political and topographical trajectories and perspectives.

Paul Abbott - FLOOD (Clutag Press, 2008) |
Announcing the forthcoming publication of FLOOD by Paul Abbott with illustrations by Gail McNeillie, available February 2008
Limited edition of 100 copies.
22pp 170mm x 240mm ISBN 0-9553476-2-9
 Paul Abbott's poem FLOOD is a 'Waste Land' for the twenty-first century, a timely and daring debut in the disaster genre, by a twenty-one-year-old in his final year at Oxford. Those who have read the first issue of Clutag's magazine Archipelago will have enjoyed a snapshot of the poem in its pages. Now it is offered complete in ten sections, illustrated with eight
superbly grainy drawings by Gail McNeillie. The vision here - 'an Epic Newsflash' - is one of post-apocalyptic catastrophe 'couched,' we're told in a prefatory note 'somewhat in the film-cutting style of Soviet montage theory (which I read about on Wikipedia)'.

ARCHIPELAGO, Issue One (Clutag Press, 2007) |
Announcing the forthcoming publication of ARCHIPELAGO Issue One, available Summer 2007
ARCHIPELAGO is a new literary magazine preoccupied with landscape, with the littoral and vestigial, liminal and subliminal, at the margins, in the unnameable constellation of islands on the Eastern Atlantic coast, known variously in other millennia as Britain, Great Britain, Britain and Ireland - even, too, too readily, the United Kingdom. But while the unnameable archipelago is its subject, its vision is by implication global, and its concerns with the state of the planet could not be more of the hour.
