Kritika Kultura An open-access semi-annual peer-reviewed international electronic journal of literary, language, and cultural studies of the Department of English of the Ateneo de Manila University, Philippines.

 

The Forum Kritika on Goa Before India aims to explore what it means to transit between Iberian colonial rule and new arrangements of power, and what happens to the past in the process. The Forum Kritika hopes that the articles generated will contribute to, if not lay the ground for, a comparative study of Iberian post-colonialisms in Asia, in turn supporting a larger project to craft regional and decolonial histories that are not Anglo-American centric. Closing date for proposals: Dec. 9, 2019.

Kritika Kultura invites interested scholars to submit manuscripts to a Forum Kritika on Spanish Literature on the Philippines, guest edited by Rocío Ortuño Casanova of University of Antwerp (Belgium). Selected papers will be published in the August 2021 issue of Kritika Kultura (ISSN: 1656-152x), an international peer-reviewed journal indexed in, among others, the Arts and Humanities Citation Index (Clarivate), EBSCO, and Scopus. Please submit a title and an abstract (200 to 250 words) together with a short bio (100 to 150 words) to rocio.ortuno@uantwerpen.be by February 15, 2020 (cc: kk.soh@ateneo.edu / subject heading: Spanish Literature).

Kritika Kultura will be initiating a forum on the filmic representations of issues on genders and sexualities in the Southeast Asian region, in line with its commitment to the pursuit and development of cultural and media studies, slated for the journal’s February 2021 issue. The forum invites scholars of gender, media, and culture to formulate topics that inspect and submit to critical evaluation, instances where Asian film products embodied controversies on gender and/or sexuality, as either local or as cross-cultural phenomena. Paper proposals should be submitted electronically to the forum editor, Joel David, at joelsky2000@yahoo.com, no later than February 29, 2020 (cc: kk.soh@ateneo.edu; subject heading: genders and sexualities).
