CELJ Featured Journals of the Month:
College Literature
College Literature is a quarterly journal of scholarly criticism serving the needs of college/university teachers by providing access to innovative ways of studying and teaching new bodies of literature and experiencing old literatures in new ways. The journal provides usable, readable, and timely material designed to keep its readers abreast of new developments and shifts in the theory and practice of literature by covering the full range of what is presently being read and taught as well as what should be read and taught in the college literature classroom.
NWSA Journal
NWSA Journal (NWSAJ), the flagship publication of the National Women's Studies Association, enlists women's studies' approaches to unite scholarship with practice and research with action. Every issue of NWSAJ brings you interdisciplinary and multicultural feminist scholarship focused on understanding women's lives. The NWSAJ features articles that are both theoretical and practical, regularly investigating the ways critical analysis informs action in and outside of academic settings. In addition to feminist scholarship and book reviews, the NWSAJ often publishes special issues focused on issues important to women's studies students and scholars.
