Vol. 8 No. 1 (2020): Autumn 2020

This is the sixteenth issue of Exchanges, published in Autumn 2020. This issue once again brings an assortment of articles, topics and authors to its interdisciplinary readership, this time highlighting strong resonances between the pieces of creativity and language acquisition. Articles in this issue deal with areas which include: applications of dramaturgy in studying the creative practitioners, the function of role-play within the acquisition of English as a second language, how non-native speakers of English can embrace and apply their cultural heritage to enhance teaching, considerations of truthfulness and autobiographical pacts within graphical literature and a healthy critique of Lehrer’s thesis of the functioning of creativity. The issue also includes a themed call for papers on the topic of ‘AI: Panic or Panacea’, as part of the issue’s editorial article.
