Vol. 2 No. 1 (2024)
This issue presents interdisciplinary research in English and North American studies, comparative literature, translation studies, language education, and Qur’anic rhetoric. The published studies provide a comprehensive analysis of contemporary trends in English and North American literary studies and examine the frequency of core vocabulary and poet representation in primary-level Persian textbooks.
The issue further evaluates Persian translations of English metrical poetry in online contexts through textual analysis and offers a comparative feminist reading of Shahrnush Parsipur’s Touba and the Meaning of Night and Toni Morrison’s Paradise using Hélène Cixous’ theoretical framework. Communicative strategy use among Thai EFL students and language difficulties faced by technical and vocational learners are also investigated.
Additional contributions include a comparative study of vocabulary learning strategies as a function of proficiency level among Azerbaijani EFL learners and a rhetorical-aesthetic analysis of Surah As-Saffat within Qur’anic discourse.
All contributions have undergone a rigorous peer-review process and aim to advance comparative literary scholarship, language pedagogy research, translation analysis, and rhetorical studies through critical and interdisciplinary inquiry.
