Theologies of Reading: Positions and Responses, the new issue of CounterText, edited by Laura McCormick Kilbride, Simone Kotva and Ruth Jackson Ravenscroft, has been published. CounterText focuses on contemporary literary and post-literary cultures, publishing articles, interviews and creative work centred on the study of literature and its 21st-century extensions. It poses questions such as: Is literature what it used to be? Are the broader resonances of the literary being overtaken in the drifts towards image cultures, digital spaces, globalisation and technoscientific advances? Or might the literary simply be elsewhere?
