AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Aesthetic theorist Theodor Adorno believed that authentic works of art recreate an experience of the individual suffering due to socially imposed mechanisms, as a way of expressing a universal historical truth. Elizabeth Bryer's debut  novel, From Here On, Monsters, published in July 2019, captures a timely human experience as it renders the suffering of Illegal Maritime Arrivals (IMA) at the hands of Australian bureaucracy, a major source of contention in the months preceding last year's federal election.'

At the end of 2019, prior to the global spread of Covid-19, we decided to work on a special issue with the theme of writing climate. As 2020 progressed and the higher education system adapted to the new circumstances, we decided that it would be best to publish a general issue, including works which focus on the theme of writing climate. Issue thirty-nine attests to the passion and motivation of our ongoing editors and authors. It is with great pride that we thank all of them for their outstanding work.' (Editorial introduction) 2020
