Publisher's Synopsis
Special Issue: The Domestic Interior in Literature Home Cultures is an interdisciplinary journal dedicated to the critical understanding of the domestic sphere, its artifacts, spaces and relations, across timeframes and cultures. Whether as a concept or a physical space, 'home' is a highly fluid and contested site of human existence that reflects and reifies identities and values. The journal aims to promote a conversation about the domestic sphere across the many disciplines in which 'home' forms a key unit of analysis. By generating a site for interdisciplinary discussion and comparative approaches, Home Cultures provides a vital and diverse forum for our general understanding of this vital sphere of human activity.
