Mythprint
History & Back Issues
Mythprint has been published more or less regularly since 1970 and is one of the benefits of membership in the Mythopoeic Society. It was initially a monthly print publication featuring news announcements, upcoming activities, assorted articles, and reviews of Discussion Group meetings in a saddle-stapled 5.5" x 8.5" format. After many years it evolved into a bi-monthly publication and, due to the changing needs of the Society and the availability of online and social media formats for news and announcements, became a quarterly publication in 2013, featuring more book reviews, interviews, and Mythcon and other reports.
Mythprint became primarily a digital publication in January of 2010 (see news item "Mythprint Becomes Primarily Electronic Publication") while time-sensitive news is relayed via our website under News and social media outlets, as detailed on our News page.
Browsing through the table of contents for issues will provide some examples of the content. Back issues of Mythprint are available for purchase by volume, in sets containing all issues from a particular year.
