About the Journal

Dibur is a peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to Hebrew, Jewish, and comparative literature.

The goal of the journal is to promote more global conversations around contemporary attitudes towards literature, ethnicity, nation, identity, language, and culture. Dibur in Hebrew means “speech,” “discussions,” and (colloquially) “understanding.” The journal is part of the Open Access Movement in scholarly publishing.
