BHJ ARCHIVE

BHJ has a metamorphic character that reflects its current graduate editor’s and advisory board’s artistic sensibilities and their engagement with culture and the times. As the journal is a hypermedia publication housed entirely online, many issues in the archive utilize a variety of website designs in their presentation of artistic works. Below, you will find links to the newest issue along with a list of those previous.






ISSUE #24

(Re)define includes writing and artistic experimentations that (re)mix and (re)define form and genre and examine identity.


Lead Editor: Elizabeth J. Mitchell
Editorial Team: Patrick Flores-Scott & Andi Pontiff

Published Fall 2023


ISSUE #23

As verb and noun, in content and form, in aesthetic and design — BathHouse Journal‘s 23rd issue is visually and thematically Fractured. In fact, the issue itself is fractured with the featured works and authors broken in two by the inclusion of a special section: Poetry from The Bloc.

ISSUE #22

Exhume‘s most common definition — to dig out or remove (something buried) from beneath the ground* — is fertile soil on its own, but the term’s fundamental concept — to unearth, bring to light* — expands BHJ22‘s theme’s scope by compelling the exposure of that which is obscured.

*Definitions from the OED

ISSUE #21

BHJ’s current issue (#21) engages with Isolation — an especially pertinent theme in our current pandemic period, but one also conducive to innovative creation. As destructive, difficult, and tragic as the last year has been, for many creators, it has also been a generative time.
