Sirena: Poetry, Art and Criticism is an international and multilingual journal of poetry and art, founded in 2004 by Dr. Jorge R. Sagastume, from Dickinson College. After a feature article published in The Chronicle of Higher Education, the Johns Hopkins University Press (JHUP) approached the college to offer the distribution of the journal, and ever since it has been published and distributed by the JHUP. Sirena has published in over twenty languages; it uniqueness resides in the fact that every poem appears in its original (if not English or Spanish) with facing translations into English and Spanish. The journal has published poets such as Günter Grass, Günter Kunert, Adrian Mitchell, Clara Janés, Homero Aridjis, and many other renown poets. Sirena appears biannually, in March and October.
