Quodlibet: The Australian Journal of Trans-national Writing

Quodlibet Home
Letter from the Editor

Welcome to Quodlibet: The Australian Journal of Trans-national Writing. This journal, which appears as an e-journal, was formerly a hard copy journal called the CRNLE Reviews Journal. This CRNLE Reviews Journal has been the publishing outlet of the Centre for Research in New Literatures in English, a centre which was founded in 1977 by Dr Syd Harrex and based in the Department of English at Flinders University, South Australia. The Centre promotes research into the literatures of India, Africa, the Caribbean, Canada and Australia, and all parts of the world where literature in English has been written. The Centre has a world-wide list of associates and a long list of publications and organises and supports a number of conferences involved in the scholarly investigation of the role of new literatures throughout the world. Quodlibet: The Australian Journal of Trans-national Writing is a refereed journal that still maintains a focus on new literatures in English, but has expanded its portfolio to consider all literatures that deal with cross-cultural contact and interaction. The journal's editor is Dr Giselle Bastin, Head of English, Creative Writing, and Australian Studies at Flinders University.

Newsflash! October 2008: Quodlibet has changed its name, and is now known as Transnational Literature. Please visit the new homepage for the journal.
