Papers in Arts and Humanities

Call for Papers, Vol. IV, Issue 2/2024, "People"

For the second 2024 issue of P’Arts’Hum, we continue to devote our attention to “People.” Therefore, scholars and academics are invited to approach once more this generous source of inspiration for all areas of Arts & Humanities. We look forward to welcoming original contributions that would bring more provocative insights for Vol. IV, issue 2/2024 of our journal. Still, we would like to underline for our possible contributors that “People” is/are at the center of any interactions with(in) possible topics (included but not limited to) such as:

– We the People (the constitution of the modern state)

– the will of the people (a legal and political fiction?)

– the voice of the people (media, social media)

– popularity vs. anonimity

– collective mindsets

– popular culture

– majority vs. minority

– race & ethnicity & gender – blurring concepts

– people brought together (historical, social & cultural circumstances)

– rites of passage

– outsiders vs. integration vs. sectionalism (ghettoization)

– the Other and the constitution of modern subjectivity

– individualism and freedom

– negotiating identity

– mild or explosive encounters

– dialogic quality

– cooperation & antagonism

– personal vs. public

– individuals and/vs. communities


* We will continue with our Miscellanea section, for other inspired contributions on Arts, Humanities & Social Sciences that would not specifically address the issue of “People.”


The word length for abstracts is 150 – 250, key words 5

The word length for scholarly articles is 4000 – 7000

The word length for reviews is 1000-1500

Submission (extended) deadline for the abstracts: July 7th 2024 to [email protected]

Submission (extended) deadline for full papers (following the acceptance of abstracts): September 7th 2024

The Papers in Arts Humanities journal is included in two international databases (CrossRef and CEEOL). Currently under indexation in Index Copernius, DOAJ & Erih Plus.

Hertrampf, Marina Ortrud M. / Mistreanu, Diana (éds.), Langue(s) et espaces dans les xénographies féminines en français, Munich, AVM.edition, 2024.

"S’inscrivant en faux contre la célèbre recommandation de Virginia Woolf selon laquelle une femme a besoin, pour pouvoir écrire, d’une chambre à soi que l’on puisse fermer à clé, l’œuvre des autrices qui constituent l’objet du présent volume est née de la traversée de villes, pays et continents, mais aussi des guerres, révolutions et régimes autocratiques des XXe et XXIe siècles. Leurs périples sont souvent volontaires et souhaités, mais ils sont aussi fortuits ou bien choisis à la suite de contraintes, de vicissitudes ou de troubles politiques. Ayant une riche et complexe filiation culturelle et linguistique, nourrie par de nombreuses langues et différents contextes socio-historiques, et étant redevable aux littératures du monde au sein desquelles s’insèrent avec audace leurs propres voix, l’œuvre des écrivaines étrangères d’expression française met en scène un rapport aux langues, à l’espace et au monde qui pose de nombreuses questions – auxquelles ce livre se propose de fournir des pistes de réflexion et de réponse."
