CFP: Journal of Humanities East-West

The Journal of Humanities East-West is a scholarly journal devoted to interdisciplinary and comparative investigations of the literature, art, philosophy, intellectual history, and critical theory of any and all national/cultural/linguistic traditions. We welcome submissions from all theoretical perspectives, including post-theoretical, eclectic, or otherwise idiosyncratic scholarly approaches, including those which reject the notions of "Humanities" or "East-West" as valid analytical categories. Articles devoted to obscure historical and textual expositions are encouraged, though such submissions should address themselves to a general scholarly audience.

Newly reorganized as a quarterly journal affiliated with National Central University in Taiwan, JHEW primarily publishes articles written in English or Chinese. We are also able on occasion to accept manuscripts written in French, German, or Japanese, though it is suggested that potential authors send a query letter first before submitting a manuscript in one of those three languages. Book reviews are also invited, particularly those concerning studies which themselves are comparative or interdisciplinary.

Currently, the Journal has no firm word limit for submissions, though the editors reserve the right to reject pieces based on length. Please send submissions (in MLA style) as .doc attachments to our editorial assistant, Ms. Jenny Tsui, at jenny@ncu.edu.tw, or through the post to Journal of Humanities East-West, College of Liberal Arts, National Central University, 300 Chungta Road, Jhongli Taoyuan 32054, Taiwan.
