Warwick Uncanny: Undergraduate Journal for Literary Research and Creative Writing Information

Warwick Uncanny is an online undergraduate journal run by literature-enthusiasts at the University of Warwick, United Kingdom. We embrace all styles and genres whether it be academic essays, creative writing, or visual art. Warwick Uncanny is an inclusive space and safe home for diverse voices from across the world. ______________ Our Story: Warwick Uncanny (originally Warwick Uncanny: Journal of Literature, Theory, and Modernity) was founded by Lilian Hingley in 2014 and originally set out to publish works of literature and theory that deal with modernity that often reflects the dissonance and connection between the familiar and the unfamiliar. The journal was interested in seeing how opposites synthesize, reading novel applications of theories to texts. Throughout the years we have welcomed change, become more inclusive in our submission of intersectional global perspectives and a variety of new formats. The journal is now accepting academic essays without any thematical limitations to modernity, and so any essay focusing on theory and/or close reading of texts & creative pieces from a large variety of genres. In 2019, we added creative writing submissions too. Now in 2021, we've added visual art and scripts to our yearly publication submission guidelines and continue to expand upon our intake of international perspectives.
