The Journal of Contemporary Poetics, housed in the International Islamic University in Islamabad, is a biannual, open access peer-reviewed journal. Focused on Literature, Linguistics & ELT, it solicits papers that are global and interdisciplinary in scope. It brings together perspectives on a diverse array of issues through well-research papers that engage with pressing contemporary issues that are framing recent debates in the Humanities. We do not seek an application of theory but an engagement with multiple cross-cultural and multi-disciplinary philosophical paradigms that are shaping the contemporary debates in Literature, Linguistics and ELT. We publish articles that touch upon a vast array of topics including
- global literatures
- immigration
- environmental studies
- poetry
- drama
- fiction
- gender studies
- narratology
- discourse studies
- popular culture
- digital spaces and cultures
- emerging genres
- borders and contact zones
- criminology
- performing arts
- philosophy
- cross-cultural studies
- ELT
- the social sciences
