Welcome to English Studies Free Periodicals (ESFP)

ESFP’s aim is to provide a classified compilation of research journals in the field of English language, literature, culture, education, linguistics, communication, educational technologies and translation. It pretends to organize a virtual online library on these topics and facilitate the access to a wide range of high quality free periodicals.

The name of the journal (underlined in blue) links directly to the main page of the journal site.

To make your search easier, you can also have access to the journals in three different ways from the right column and the bottom:

-The first section (Browse the shelves, right column) displays all the included journals with direct links to them.

-The second section (Key words, right column) offers a classification by topic based on the keywords provided by each journal.

-The third section (Index Catalogue, bottom of the central column) lists all the journals in alphabetical order. It links to a full description of each journal in the main body of the page (+ info). By clicking on the name of the journal you can also get access to the journal.

We will appreciate any comment about the selected periodicals as well as information about new journals not included here. Thanks for your help.

ImageTexT: Interdisciplinary Comics Studies


ImageTexT is a peer-reviewed, open access journal dedicated to the interdisciplinary study of comics and related media.
The objective of ImageTexT is to advance the academic study of comic books, comic strips, and animated cartoons. Under the guidance of an editorial board of scholars from a variety of disciplines, ImageTexT publishes solicited and peer-reviewed papers that investigate the material, historical, theoretical, and cultural implications of visual textuality. ImageTexT welcomes essays emphasizing (but not limited to) the aesthetics, cognition, production, reception, distribution and dissemination of comics and other media as they relate to comics, along with translations of previously existing research on comics as dimensions of visual culture.
Exploring all periods and all countries and deploying a wide range of disciplinary approaches,
ImageTexT is designed to foster innovative discussions of the political and social implications of
comics, to generate original formal aesthetic analyses of comics, and to broaden theoretical
discussions of genre, period, narrative, and complex image/text relationships in comics and related media. ImageTexT will include reviews of current scholarship in the field, announcements regarding relevant conferences and upcoming publications, and links to other theoretical projects of interest to readers. ImageTexT will also provide currently unavailable English-language translations of seminal essays of comics theory. ImageTexT is listed in the MLA Bibliography, beginning summer 2005.
