About Tertulia Magazine
In the late 1700’s, rooms in the local theaters in Madrid were reserved for men of letters to engage in intellectual discussions. Since most of these men were Catholic clergy, their discussions many times revolved around the Church Father Tertullian. Thus, the tertulia was born.
In 2003, Tertulia Magazine was founded by Rosa Martha Villarreal, An H. Nguyen, and Bernardo Salinas to continue the tradition of independent, non-ideological discourse through art and written word in cyberspace.
Poetry, fiction, art, and essays are published on a quarterly basis. Your feedback to the blog entries is welcomed. Comments responding to the blogs will be published at our discretion. We request that you use standard English and the appropriate rhetorical tone for a literary journal.
We encourage and welcome your submissions at submissions@tertuliamagazine.com.
