CEA Critic is the official journal of the College English Association, publishing academic works that study novels, poems, plays, non fiction, and film texts researched during the university stage through a "close reading" approach. This magazine links traditional academic research with practical education, covering a wide range of interests traditionally collected under English studies: literature, women's studies, public speaking, writing, minority studies, creative writing, popular culture, film studies, technical communication, and ESL (English as a Second Language). By focusing on the context of the work rather than the theoretical aspect, CEA Critics provides a refreshing academic and practical perspective for teachers and scholars. CEA critics publish academic articles and carefully read English professors' learning and teaching texts - novels, poems, dramas, non fiction, and movies. CEA critics praise the importance of literary criticism from multiple perspectives, as well as the value of reading and teaching familiar and unfamiliar literary works.
