The Scattered Pelican
is a double-anonymized peer-reviewed journal run by Comparative Literature graduate students at the Department of Languages & Cultures in Western University.
Our Editorial Board commits to:
- A comparative approach that embraces pluralism and inhabits the spaces or aporias of/in/between/among discourses, ideologies, or methods of criticism
- Playfulness as a levelling perspective that resists the privileging of certain objects of study based on origins, genres, forms, or media
- Active and conscious pursuit of scholarship that enlarges the space of the discipline of comparative literature through deep engagement with a broad range of objects of study, novel applications of critical theory, and primary texts in their original languages
