The Journal of King Abdulaziz University: Arts and Humanities is a double-blind, peer-reviewed and academic journal published regularly by the University Scientific Publishing Centre. It typifies a cultural horizon, which is deemed part of the scientific research movement in the university. The journal seeks to serve scholars, researchers and thinkers inside and outside the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia through the publication of empirical, experimental and theoretical research studies in different fields of arts and humanities. It enriches the movement of scientific research through establishing an enlightening basis of knowledge, which raises the level of human intellect and behaviour. The journal is concerned with the publication of original and new research studies in different fields of humanities in Arabic, English or French, which have never been published. The journal is also concerned with the publication of special research studies conducted by students of graduate studies of different universities, a matter which springs from the journal’s concern about novice researchers to give them the opportunity to publish their academic production in a special issue of the journal.
