LITERARIA: An International Journal of New Literature Across the World
The Journal proposes that what characterises the study of English through the larger part of literature is its multidisciplinary and multicultural nature. That is to say, in the first place, that English is studied in most of the world as a subject made up, in a variety of ways, of a range of disciplines or sub-disciplines, including Literature, Theory, Area Studies, and the study of Culture – each term of which is itself plural in its conceptions and practices. ‘LITERARIA’, in this sense, would signify the multifaceted view of the object of study and its corollary would be the potential for dialogue between the (sub-) disciplinary approaches which construct it. To this end, rather than devoting individual issues to particular disciplines within English Studies, the editors are proposing a series of topics each of which may be addressed, in a dialogical manner, from a variety of disciplinary (and, ideally, interdisciplinary) points of view. This, we believe, has worked for the Literary Theory, and should work also in the more formally scholarly context of the LITERARIA: An International Journal of New Literature Across the World. LITERARIA is the journal of the English dedicated to providing a forum for innovative poetry, prose, drama, criticism and artwork from emerging and established writers and artists.
