ablanatha is an online literary & arts magazine, founded in 2025. our name is derived from a vox magica attested in various ritual texts: intaglio gems, late antique invocations, magical lamens, and so on.

we are interested in any work that is good and thought-provoking — poetry is a sort of eros — but particularly work that employs performance or enactment (“ritual”), engages the archaeological record, plays with materiality, or otherwise wouldn’t look out of place in a grimoire.
