Philament is a free online journal of postgraduate scholarship in the fields of cultural studies and the literary arts. It is edited and published by an editorial collective of postgraduate students from the University of Sydney but aims to develop an intellectual community that has both an interdisciplinary and intercampus nature.

Philament is designed to be a conduit for uninhibited academic debate, critical discussion and creative expression over a broad range of topics within the literary arts and cultural studies. Submissions are welcome in the form of long and short articles, reviews, fictional work, and visual or multimedia experiments.

All Features articles are subject to a double blind peer review process, being assessed before publication by at least two external scholars with substantial knowledge of the relevant field to ensure originality and high standards of critical thought and expression.
