Upcoming issue of Hyperion from Contra Mundum Press

One of my favorite magazines/journals has been Hyperion: On the Future of Aesthetics, published by Contra Mundum Press. Unfortunately there hasn't been an issue in four years (see update) but there should be a new issue available later this month. The CMP folks were nice enough to send me the table of contents for the upcoming issue. Since I'm fan of >Szentkuthy, I'm especially looking forward to the excerpt from Chapter on Love and the essay Præ-Prae. I'm sure this will be like previous issues where there is a lot to discover and explore. Be on the lookout for it!
