Founded in 1970, The Antigonish Review is the third longest-running creative-writing journal in the Maritimes and one of the oldest continuing literary magazines in Canada. TAR has always prided itself on offering an eclectic array of poetry and prose by emerging as well as established writers. It also encourages critical discussion through its publishing of extensive book reviews and thoughtful scholarly articles. TAR was also one of the first English-language literary journals in Canada to publish translations of French-Canadian poets. This tradition has expanded to include translations by international award-winning poets such as Estonian Arved Viirlaid and Brazilian Edilberto Coutinho. In addition, each issue includes pieces by emerging and prominent Maritime artists. TAR won 2003 Canadian Magazine Publishers Award for Best Cover Art among Literary Magazines. TAR also offers students opportunities to participate in the life of the journal, whether through internships or its Atlantic Undergraduate Poetry contest. Far from being just a regional magazine, TAR reaches readers throughout Canada and the United States, as well as in countries like Germany, Korea, France, Saudi Arabia, England, and the Netherlands. Every year the journal receives more than a thousand submissions from as far away as Afghanistan, the Bahamas, Australia/New Zealand, India, Hawaii, and Brazil. TAR is supported by the Canada Council for the Arts and St. Francis Xavier University.
