Domicide, Chronic Homelessness and Black Feminist Homemaking in Toni Morrison’s Home
Toni Morrison’s Home follows Korean War veteran Frank Money on his journey back to the American South to rescue his sister Cee from medical abuse. While much of the scholarship on Home tends to centre on themes such as trauma, eugenics, violence and incarceration, it may at times overlook Morrison’s more nuanced interrogation of the novel’s eponymous theme of home, potentially reducing it to yet another conventional trauma-recovery narrative. Dra…
Specter of Shame
If in the Chinese Exclusion era (1882–1943), Chinatown epitomized an aberrant, perverse space inundated with lies, secrets, and promiscuity, an “Asian American ghetto” or “ethnic enclave” (Chang, W

Al-Wujūh Wa Al-Naẓāir ‘Inda Al-Imām Abī Ḥafṣ Al-Nasfī Min Khilāl Tafsīruhu Al-Taysīr Fī Al-Tafsīr
Al-Taysīr fī Al-Tafsīr of Imām Abū Ḥafṣ Al-Nasafī is considered one of the tafsir books that focused on listing Al-Wujūh wa Al-Naẓāʼir. However, the concept of this term in this tafsir book was not clear according to the author’s view, nor his stance on the occurrence of this type of semantic pluralism in the Qur’an, despite the different views and positions of scholars on the subject. In addition to the lack of clarity in his approach to dealing…
Agential Black Body in Jesmyn Ward’s Sing, Unburied, Sing
Jesmyn Ward’s novel Sing, Unburied, Sing (2017) vividly captures the lived experiences of African Americans in the rural Southern United States amidst the enduring legacies of slavery and the ongoing impact of racial subjugation. This article focuses on the novel’s portrayal of its Black characters and articulation of the Black body to demonstrate how the Black body not only bears the scars of systemic, historical-social injustice but also functi…
Spatial Anxiety and Identity in Toni Morrison's God Help the Child and Brit Bennett's The Vanishing Half
Black women often experience heightened spatial anxieties in gendered and racialized geographies, which manifests as a general sense of homelessness, confinement, anxiety, unease, fear, and being gazed at and watched. These embodied spatial experiences and anxieties shape their identities, yet the impact of spatiality on Black women's identities in these contexts remains underexplored. Toni Morrison's God Help the Child (2015) and Brit Bennett's …
Female Coming of Age
This study explores the theoretical basis and ways to realize the integration of contemporary digital technology and literary research, and looks forward to the analysis of the application of digital literary research by using Joyce Carol Oates’s novel Mudwoman (2012). The novel expresses great concern for the social crisis and the spiritual dilemma of human beings in contemporary America through the observation of the daily life of individuals i…

By using the grounded theory and drawing on ideas from disability studies and social identity theory, the research demonstrates that parental guidance, encouragement and normal treatment of friends, and exposure …
From Urban Space to Cyberspace
Philip K. Dick takes the highly computerized but ruined Los Angeles of the United States after the post-apocalyptic war as the background and brings the cyberspace struggle between androids and humans as the novel's theme, sketching a cyberpunk society in which humans and androids fight against each other. The novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? invites people to think about cyberspace and human-androids subjectivity. Inspired by Slavoj Zi…
Maternal Neonaticide, Shame and Social Melancholy in Hsu-Ming Teo’s Love and Vertigo
Most critics read Love and Vertigo (2000) by Chinese-Australian writer Hsu-Ming Teo as a novel about diaspora and migrancy. However, the recurrent trope of maternal neonaticide has been critically neglected considering Teo’s portrayal of the predicaments of two generations of mothers who either dispose of or kill their neonates. This article refutes the cultural and radical feminists’ reductionist essentialization of maternal morality depicted in…
