Singularities Journal is an open-access, peer-reviewed academic platform dedicated to the critical exploration of cultural, theoretical, and interdisciplinary paradigms. Established in 2014, the jounral is committed to publishing original scholarship that engages with the shifting contours of knowledge in the humanities and social sciences, while also remaining open to transdisciplinary perspectives that challenge established academic boundaries.
Founded on the belief that intellectual inquiry must remain dynamic and disruptive, Singularities serves as a space where disciplines converge and ideas collide—offering fresh insight into enduring questions, emergent discourses, and marginalized voices. From cultural theory to translation studies, from decolonial critique to digital humanities, the journal welcomes contributions that interrogate, innovate, and inspire.
As part of our mission, Singularities champions open access to knowledge, ensuring that all articles are freely available without paywalls, and that our platform remains inclusive, rigorous, and globally relevant. Each submission undergoes a double-blind peer review process and adheres to the highest standards of academic ethics and editorial integrity.
We invite scholars, researchers, and public intellectuals to join us in shaping a journal that is as intellectually bold as it is critically engaged.
The current issue of Singularities brings together a diverse and thought-provoking collection of scholarly articles that traverse critical disciplines such as literature, gender studies, cultural theory, ecocriticism, posthumanism, and digital media studies. This edition reflects the journal's commitment to spotlighting voices from the margins, interrogating hegemonic structures, and reimagining epistemologies for a more inclusive and just academic discourse.
Explores the construction and negotiation of power, selfhood, and agency across cinematic, literary, and mythological landscapes. Contributions examine how contemporary cinema deconstructs casteist masculinity and reproductive choice, while literary analyses focus on Muslim female subjectivity, marginalized voices claiming agency, and feminist re-readings of classical mythology to challenge long-standing cultural norms.
Focuses on the complex relationships between humans, nature, and the nonhuman world through posthumanism and environmental humanities. Contributions investigate rivers as therapeutic blue spaces, nonhuman agency, posthuman bodies shaped by biological phenomena, ecological ruin, archival loss, and the historical impacts of ecological colonialism.
Addresses societal and political transformations driven by emerging technologies and evolving media platforms. Articles trace the shift from traditional privilege to modern algorithmic power, analyze artificial intelligence and superintelligence in speculative fiction, examine multimodal storytelling across print, digital applications, and video games, and highlight digital-native subcultures as contemporary forms of performative resistance.
Centers on social hierarchies, historical trauma, and systemic inequality to highlight how marginalized identities navigate power structures. Works here analyze graphic depictions of historical violence and memory, systemic subjugation in regional contexts, biopolitics surrounding Indigenous knowledge, and how caste and social exclusion shape lived experiences.
Investigates how popular media and local folk traditions reflect underlying social anxieties and cultural cosmologies. Studies examine modern youth culture, commercialization, and alienation within popular cinema, alongside coastal maritime folklore, local song traditions, and alternative worldviews embedded in regional expressive arts.
Brings together philosophical inquiries, ethical frameworks, and educational practices. Critical readings examine humanism, enlightenment, spiritual philosophies within historical reformist movements, and concepts of sovereignty and power regimes in classical epics, alongside practical discussions on expanding pluriliteracy and inclusive English language instruction for underserved student communities.
This edition features the scholarly work of contributors from across India’s academic landscape—seasoned professors, emerging researchers, and doctoral scholars—whose interdisciplinary engagements continue to push the boundaries of knowledge and scholarship.
