The year 2025 marks the centenary of the publication of Paz Marquez Benitez’s story “Dead Stars” in the Philippines Herald. The publication arguably inaugurated the Filipino short story in English. One hundred years since “Dead Stars” what has been the achievement of Filipino fictionists who use English? What issues have they had to or continue to grapple with? What appears to the future of Filipino fiction in English?
Perspectives in the Arts and Humanities accepts manuscripts exploring these and related questions for its November 2025 issue. Original research on aspects of Philippine fiction written in English (production, readership, translation, etc.), commentary on specific authors or works, and related topics are welcome.
