Until now, critics have shown little interest in the bouquet of aromas and scents that permeate the linguistic fabric of À la recherche du temps perdu , to the point of forming an olfactory (and cognitive) underlay. The aesthetic impact of these odors warrants further investigation, starting with a reconstruction of the “problem of smell” in Prou…[Read more]

With the climate of Brexit, xenophobia and white supremacy on the rise, health and safety of Black and Global Majority people under threat during the spread of Covid in the UK and elsewhere, a discussion of colonialism, migration, borders, and equality – in the classrooms and outside – is more pertinent than ever.

Against the background of the often female-focused view of sexual abuse victims, this paper addresses the issue of male-identifying victims of sexual violence through the lens of the Bible. I tackle one particular form of sexual abuse: female-on-male sexual violence, of the “forced/made to penetrate” type through a re-reading of Genesis 19:…[Read more]

Despite the epistemological importance of the scholarly journal, few thorough histories of individual academic journals have been written, especially of journals in the arts and humanities.

When considering the establishment of overseas viking encampments, some of the most detailed and vivid contemporary descriptions of this activity originate from the Frankish realm, a region which nevertheless remains precariously positioned in wider comparative investigations of the viking world. To address this imbalance, this chapter assembles…[Read more]

The Baconian oeuvre remains the most extensive and influential assault on Aristotelianism in English writing of the early modern period. Where convention respected Aristotelian logic as a viable instrument for studying natural philosophy, Bacon instead sought to initiate an instauration, or restoration, of learning by proposing his inductive…[Read more]

Death, as well as sleep, seem to leave us facing the category of the unspeakable. This paper aims at studying Proust’s novel from this point of view, examining the paradox of a writing that crosses the threshold between what can be said and “what cannot be said but must nevertheless be heard” (Blanchot). We intend to analyze the discursive and r…[Read more]

‘There is no truth, only perception of truth’, and that perception too changes with time. Lysistrata is one such text where this difference of perception prevails. Written by Aristophanes in 411 BCE, Lysistrata is one of the eleven Old Greek Comedy plays surviving out of forty-two. The play revolves around the Peleponnesian war, when women hav…[Read more]

La inteligencia artificial (IA) no sólo es tecnociencia sino también cultura que se remonta a ciertas valoraciones filosóficas de la inteligencia, lo natural y lo artificial. De ahí que produzca entusiasmo y temor, por no decir angustia ante la finitud de cierta humanidad. No se trata tanto, para el pensamiento contemporáneo de la técnica, de re…[Read more]

Este artículo argumenta que las críticas feministas del universalismo androcéntrico, el determinismo tecnológico y la mercantilización del conocimiento no se conforman ya con figurar como contenidos académicos, sino que se constituyen activismos académicos por la transformación post-humanista de los saberes a través de prácticas experimen…[Read more]

glorifies trivial incident of cutting of locks of protagonist Belinda. This poem was written in the
Augustan Era (1660-1784) which is marked by the period of scientific reason and rationality, whose
effect can be seen on the writers of those…[Read more]
