Focus and Scope

Aiming to advance scholarly discourse in the Humanities and Social Studies, Journal ALBION publishes original research that employs a range of qualitative and/or quantitative approaches beyond traditional Western literary canons. While grounded in fields such as Western literary criticism, linguistics, cultural studies, and cultural translation traditions, the journal particularly welcomes critical analyses of English-language literary and cultural works from non-Western countries, including film, visual arts, archives, poetry, novels, and prose, as well as interdisciplinary texts that reflect diverse cultural and regional voices. Submissions may take the form of empirical studies, textual or media analyses, and theoretical or conceptual investigations that engage with contemporary debates, frameworks, or methodologies.
