Magazine history

The International Journal of Cultures and Literatures [ISSN: 1885-3625] is an annual publication created in 2005 by the Writers and Writings Research Group (HUM753) of the Ministry of Innovation, Science and Business of the Junta de Andalucía . The journal has the support of the Editorial of the University of Seville, adhering to its editorial seal and committing itself to ensuring the quality of the publications of each issue to meet the criteria required by the institution.

Its objective is to disseminate scientific research around cultural studies, peripheral writing and gender studies.

The digital magazine of the Escritura y Escritoras Research Group is a field for the dissemination of theoretical proposals, literary creation, discourse analysis and analysis of culture, as well as an open and plural forum for debate on the most varied proposals that revolve around gender studies, feminisms, semiotics and cultural studies.

Peripheral voices, both in creation and in thought, emerging writings, gynocritics and the entire range of cultural studies are part of the proposals that our magazine collects.

The media and the changes in representation, with radical mutations such as those promoted by simulacra brought about by new technologies, as well as the traditional areas of literary, cinematographic, pictorial and the arts in general, will not be neglected in this international, intercultural and multilingual publication.

The publication aims to be a constant communication bridge with the research that is being carried out on these issues in America, Africa and Europe.
