Angelaki
The Journal of the Theoretical Humanities
Customer Feedback
"Each issue of Angelaki arrives like a scouting report from the edge of the known world, the one trembling right now under our feet. Fearless and inventive, this journal has reset the agenda for the theoretical humanities. Long may it thrive."
Peggy Kamuf, University of Southern California, USA
"[L]ively, sharp, imaginative... It aims to break down the division between academic and non-academic writers and readers with the belief that theoretical questions should carry a political force and not be confined to university institutions and the publishing game. And it is dedicated to an interdisciplinary agenda... [I]ssues adventurously address topics and disciplines not normally covered by mainstream theoretical discussions... This is a great magazine."
Jennifer Wallace, Peterhouse, Cambridge University in The Times Higher Education Supplement
"Angelaki has established itself as a leading forum of theoretical reflection, providing a practical refutation of all those who would celebrate "the end of theory." Whether it is focused on thematic issues of the most varied nature, introducing thinkers to English-language readers, or treating a variety of problems in ‘open' issues, Angelaki challenges the complacency of the self-evident. Required reading for the next millennium."
Samuel Weber, University of California at Los Angeles
"Angelaki has quickly established a space in which theoretical work that aims to acknowledge the boundaries between disciplines by questioning them can flourish. The conversations it enables have been energetic, unpredictable and genuinely productive."
Stephen Mulhall, New College, Oxford University
"…an indispensable part of my library, publishing some of the best new work and signalling some of the most important new directions in cultural studies."
Lawrence Grossberg, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
"…consistently provides innovative and stimulating insights on an exciting array of current critical issues. In an era of diminishing expectations, Angelaki gives new hope for creative, collaborative research."
Charles J. Stivale, Wayne State University
"…the most innovative and exciting new journal in the field of literary and cultural theory to have emerged from Britain in recent years…provoking, attuned to the moment and at the same time surprising."
Nicholas Royle, University of Stirling
‘A strong and surprising publication that is interested in a wide range of cultural studies issues from harder-theory perspectives…' ‘Angelaki's position papers and substantial essays, addressing current concerns in cultural theory zero in on interesting and problematical topics and fields, with results that are resourceful, rigorous, and lively...' ‘I put Angelaki at the top because I find it refreshingly alive, buzzing with critical energy.'"
From the CELJ Awards transcript
"Refreshing and truly thought-provoking; worthy of all but the smallest college libraries"
Library Journal
"Good to think with…generates an agreeable vitality and iconoclasm…full of promise"
