Perhaps the most relevant question we are facing today, both in and out of the university, is how to deal with AI. In academia, different disciplines handle this question in a myriad of ways, some insisting that to not embrace AI in the classroom is harmful to the students, while others believe the utilization of AI must weaken critical thinking skills. Regardless of the differing opinions on how to use it appropriately, no one disagrees that it is here to stay.

Special Session/Panel on "Breath, Borders, and Belonging: Pandemic Literature and the Postcolonial Imagination"
Volcanic matter really matters. During a one hundred year span from the 1780s to 1880s, a series of volcanic eruptions occurred that altered the atmosphere, disrupted weather conditions, and caused unprecedented loss due to famine and widespread disease: Laki Iceland (1783-1784); Vesuvius, Italy (1794); Pico Viejo, Canary Islands (1798); Tambora, Indonesia (1815); Ferdinandea, Sicily (1831); Hekla, Iceland (1840, 1845); and Krakatoa, Indonesia (1883). Various critics have written about the systemic effects geologically, meteorologically, and ecologically such as Richard Altick, David Higgins, Monique Morgan, Marilynn Olsen, Nicholas Robbins, Jesse Oak Taylor, and Gillen D’Arcy Wood.
From book bans to executive orders, the question of academic freedom and the freedom to read has become increasingly urgent. In the wake of the 2024 election, debates around “parental rights” and ideological control have intensified, fueling challenges to literacy and intellectual freedom. According to preliminary data from the American Library Association, 1,128 unique titles were challenged between January 1 and August 31, 2024 (“American Library Association reveals preliminary data on 2024 book challenges,” September 23, 2024).
The last decade has seen a surge in scholarly interdisciplinarity, exploring the nonhuman in a broad range of critical perspectives. Whether through Glenworth et al (2024)’s conservationist prism which contextualises ‘Rewilding’ as a way of restoring ‘non-human autonomy’; or perhaps, through Bram Büscher (2021)’s capitalist reflections on nature’s alienation and entanglement, both of which are recent approaches that seek to champion the cause of ‘decentering the human in favor of a concern for the nonhuman’ (Grusin, 2015: 1), we see a growing pace of intersectionality within which nature and literature are brazenly intertwined.
Food, in any society, is defined as much by what is consumed as by what is excluded. The concept of edibility is shaped not only by nourishment or taste but also by cultural, religious, political, and social boundaries. This edited volume investigates non-food—items or substances that are technically ingestible but culturally rejected, stigmatized, or taboo—in postcolonial South Asian literature. From famine-induced substitutes to ritually impure matter, we seek to explore how literary representations of non-food reflect evolving dynamics of power, identity, and cultural values in a region deeply shaped by colonialism and its afterlives.
