AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Advicecomics.tumblr.com is a collaborative online comics project which repurposes the advice column formula. Anonymous users write in with their problems and comics artists create comics in response. In this paper I closely observe the dialogical and embodied thinking-and-feeling strat-egies that the comics artists employ in their responses to the letters, contextualising these strategies within Bakhtin’s notion of the carnival as a folk phenomena.'

    'There has been a growing creative interest and scholarly engagement with practices and frameworks of care and repair and their real and implied relationship to breakage and acts of restoration. While not specifically directed at the year that was 2020, there are many ways in which the worlds in which we now live might be in need of mending. And how might we envisage recovery? This issue takes a broad interpretation of the theme and submissions explore, challenge and respond in a multitude of ways.' (Publication summary)
