Speaking at the 2015 Cultural Studies Association of Australasia Conference in Melbourne, Professor Meaghan Morris stated in her keynote address that ‘liminal space is a threshold space’. And, indeed, these words reflect the nature of this volume of Limina: A Journal of Historical and Cultural Studies. As a celebration of our 20 years as an academic journal, it marks simultaneously the past, present and future of new academic research in cultural and historical studies in Australia and abroad; it is in this sense a threshold.
