Volume 11, December 2023

Volume 11 marks a new age for AJELS.

With this volume, we happily launch a new look of the now decade-old Journal of the University of Santo Tomas (UST) – Department of English. The navy-blue color, which is linked to trust and stability, strengthens the identification of AJELS with its institutional birthplace, the UST Faculty of Arts and Letters. Besides this change in form, the substance of this volume also celebrates diversity in the kind of scholarly outputs featured and the themes that weave the published works into a unified message.

Whereas research articles have been the staple content of the previous releases, Volume 11 also publishes a review article, a brief report, a book review, and a critical essay. These unique contributions offer a more nuanced conversation on topics of interest. Representing voices mostly from the Philippines but also from Singapore and the US, the articles in the current issue contribute to the discourse of gender and inclusivity, language use and multilingualism, and literacy and education.
 
Questions exploring language and gender inclusivity are taken up in novel ways—a brief report, a book review, and a critical essay. These contributions examine important issues of intersectionality.
