Assistant Editor Sought for Amphora
Amphora, the APA's outreach publication, is seeking a classicist with
a university or high school affiliation to serve as Assistant Editor.
The initial term of appointment will be for three years with the
possibility of renewal and the expectation that the Assistant Editor
may become Editor in the future. The Assistant Editor will receive a
modest annual honorarium of $500. The appointment will take effect in
January 2008.
Amphora is a publication sponsored by the Committee on Outreach of
the American Philological Association that aims to convey the
excitement of classical studies to a broad readership by offering
accessible articles written by professional scholars and experts on
topics of classical interest that include literature, language,
mythology, history, culture, classical tradition, archaeology, and
the arts, and by featuring reviews of current books, films, and Web
sites. Sponsored by the Committee on Outreach and supported by the
APA, Amphora is for everyone interested in the study of ancient
Greece and Rome. Engaging and informative, this publication is
intended for a wide audience of those interested in and enthusiastic
about the classical world: teachers and students, present and former
classics majors, administrators in the field of education, community
leaders, professional classicists, and interested academics and
professionals in other fields.
The Assistant Editor will work closely with the Editor to determine
the direction and content of future issues and assist in the final
editing and proofreading stages of each issue, especially in its
final stage. In addition, the Assistant Editor will help in
soliciting and generating articles, in finding referees for articles,
and will take over the responsibility for editing reviews after the
first year of appointment. Approximately five articles, five book
reviews, a Web site review, and a film review appear in each issue.
Amphora is published twice each year, in June and December.
Editorial experience and experience with technology and desktop
publishing tools are desirable, and enthusiasm for the outreach
mandate of Amphora is essential.
Those interested should send a letter outlining their qualifications
plus a curriculum vitae to Dr. Adam Blistein, Executive Director,
American Philological Association, 292 Logan Hall, University of
Pennsylvania, 249 S. 36th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104-6304, to
