Focus & Scope
ACJ (ISSN 2522-3402) is a peer-reviewed, scholarly, open access journal focusing on the meaning of cultural expression and perceptions as seen through different interpretative lenses. It publishes articles and reviews as well as Special Issues on particular subjects. The journal’s core focus surrounds the question of human existence from the historical, artistic, spiritual, linguistic, digital, communicative, environmental, political and socio-cultural dimensions. ACJ provides an advanced forum for studies related to humanities, and a variety of perspectives are welcome—including interdisciplinary approaches—as long as they focus on narrative modes of human epistemology.
ACJ publishes research in a variety of narrative sources: archival, documentary, oral, material, visual and objective. Our aim is to encourage researchers to publish their innovative ideas and results in as much detail as possible; therefore, there are no restrictions on the length of the papers. Each paper must critically engage with the relevant and most recent secondary literature on the addressed topic. We do not pursue any political or religious ideology and aim for objectivity. As ACJ is a platform for scholarly contributions, it is expected that the authors have made their best efforts to reflect on all of the relevant research and that they thus represent the state of the art in their field in both theoretical and practical terms.
