The first issue marks a new beginning, celebrating scholarship in Arts and Humanities, and will soon welcome contributions from the Sciences as well.
Theme: Ecoconsciousness
JULY-DECEMBER 2025 Issue
In an era defined by climate crisis, environmental degradation, and the reshaping of human-nature relationships, the need for ecoconsciousness: a critical awareness of the interconnectedness between human life and the planet, has never been more urgent. The Arts and Humanities play a crucial role in reimagining this relationship by evoking emotional, ethical, and cultural dimensions of ecological thought.
This issue of the Journal of Dimoria College invites research articles that engage with the concept of ecoconsciousness across disciplines such as literature, visual arts, music, film, cultural studies, philosophy, environmental humanities, and interdisciplinary sciences.
The journal welcomes innovative scholarship that explores how artistic and intellectual practices can nurture sustainable futures and challenge the anthropocentric paradigms that have historically shaped human existence.
