Since 1992 Common Knowledge has opened lines of communication among schools of thought in the academy, as well as between the academy and the community of thoughtful people outside its walls. Common Knowledge has formed a new intellectual model, one based on conversation and cooperation rather than on metaphors (adopted from war and sports) of "sides" that one must "take." The pages of Common Knowledge regularly challenge the ways we think about scholarship and its relevance to humanity.
Comparative Critical Studies covers literary theory and criticism; comparative and cultural studies; and interdisciplinary debate. It includes major plenary lectures given at BCLA conferences by well known speakers, commissioned articles relating to given themes, some creative writing, translations (including the winning entries in the annual BCLA/BCLT translation competition), discussions of translation, essay reviews, and special bibliographies on the theme for the year, or on individual writers.
Comparative Literature Studies publishes comparative articles in literature and culture, critical theory, and cultural and literary relations within and beyond the Western tradition. It brings you the work of eminent critics, scholars, theorists, and literary historians, whose essays range across the rich traditions of Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. One of its regular issues every two years concerns East-West literary and cultural relations and is edited in conjunction with members of the College of International Relations at Nihon University. Each issue includes reviews of significant books by prominent comparatists.
