Bridges & Borders (Spring 2010, Volume 1, Issue 2)


Welcome to the second issue of the Journal of South Texas English Studies in which we examine the theme “Bridges and Borders: Exploring the Confluence of Languages, Disciplines, and Cultures.”

In the links below, you will find scholarly articles which touch on the treatment of Jews during the Romantic Period, the use of the Virgin of Guadalupe as a symbol for multiple causes, border crossings as a rite-of-passage, Gloria Anzaldua's Borderlands, and the role of women concerning the issue of spirituality. We also have poetry by Nathanael O'Reilly and Ismail S. Talib, a creative nonfiction piece by William Guajardo and several book reviews.

I hope you enjoy.

Sincerely,
Andrew Keese
Editor
