Focus and Scope

Focus

Language, Culture and Art is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal that focuses on critical, interdisciplinary, and contextual studies at the intersection of language, culture, and artistic practices in both global and local settings. The journal aims to advance theoretical, empirical, and methodological discussions that examine how language functions as a cultural practice, how culture is represented and negotiated through artistic expression, and how art contributes to social meaning, identity formation, and cultural transformation.

The journal welcomes original research articles, conceptual papers, and critical reviews that explore language, culture, and art from multidisciplinary perspectives, including but not limited to linguistics, cultural studies, literature, visual and performing arts, media studies, anthropology, education, and digital humanities. Particular attention is given to studies that engage with contemporary issues, cross-cultural contexts, local wisdom, and emerging artistic and linguistic phenomena in response to social, technological, and global changes.

Scope of the Journal includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

  • Linguistics and applied linguistics in cultural and artistic contexts

  • Language, discourse, and representation of culture and identity

  • Literary studies, literary criticism, and comparative literature

  • Cultural studies, cultural heritage, and local wisdom

By fostering rigorous scholarship and interdisciplinary dialogue, Language, Culture and Art seeks to contribute to the advancement of knowledge on the dynamic relationships between language, cultural practices, and artistic expression, while supporting the dissemination of research that is relevant to both academic communities and broader cultural discourse.
