Who We Are
The Alexandrian publishes a quarterly online journal of art and thought and a blog, mainly from the perspective of Canadian Catholic youth.
Summer 2008
‘Time and Eternity’ 
Winter 2009
‘Poverty, Chastity and Obedience’ 
Our purpose is three-fold:
- - to provide a community and network of Catholic authors, artists and readers, letting them meet and share ideas
- - to support such authors and artists by publishing their works
- - to engage modern Canadian culture in a dialogue with the rich Classical and Catholic traditions
News
Congratulations to all readers, submitters, editors and directors who have made this venture possible! The Alexandrian now has over a full year’s worth of issues!
We are releasing our spring issue today, on the theme of Life and Death. We hope you enjoy it!
In this newest issue, we have added the Drama category. Feel free to submit short plays as well as poetry, short stories, essays and art in future issues.
Previous issues include our winter issue on Poverty, Chastity and Obedience, and our fall issue on Work, which were released in January and November, respectively. Last summer’s issue was on Time and Eternity, and you can also read the winter and spring issues from last year.
Next Issue
This summer, you have the unique opportunity to submit whatever you like (within the normal submission guidelines, of course). While there is no theme restriction, there is a time restriction, and your submissions are due by July 15st, 2009.
This is the first time the Alexandrian with have a ‘free-themed’ issue, and it is very experimental. If we are successful, we might leave the summer issue open every year. So, pull out your old art and English projects, brush something up and send it in! We’re looking forward to including even more new authors and artists in our next issue.
