IRCALC
- International Research Council on African Literature
and Culture
IRCALC is the web based council
of writers, scholars and researchers around the
world with common interest in
 African studies,
particularly the literature, arts and cultures of
Africa and her Diaspora. IRCALC editors also see to
the regular volumes of the journals of Critical
Studies (CS), African Literature (JAL) and New
Poetry (NP).
For
years IRCALC initiatives in research in African literature
with member organizations, college departments, libraries and individuals
across the Diaspora
have provided information, ideas, and research that enrich understanding of Africa's rich and diverse cultural
heritage .
Membership cuts across race and
nationality and embraces scholars committed to a more imaginative approach to Africa's
development issues. CS, JAL and NP journal publications are available online
or by subscription. Individual and institutional members
also receive regular reviews and newsletters of
the organisation.
