Catharsis aims to provide undergraduate students with experience and support in publishing a literary magazine. Our focus is to construct a publication for artists, anonymous or named, to voice their truth. We define “truth” as an author’s perception, exploration, and interaction with the world around them. We are committed to reading work openly, honestly, and fairly. Our publication strives to increase the accessibility of written work that explores the multidimensional human experience. We are interested in writing that engages the reader in new and exciting ways and is purposeful in its conveyance of an author’s lived experiences, observations, and feelings. Catharsis seeks to reimagine the limits of the nonfiction genre to be inclusive of diverse voices, forms, and subjects.
