Kasurian is a magazine for the 21st century.
As a general-interest magazine, Kasurian aims to contribute to the emergence of a distinct worldview that carries forward essential truths and is equipped to negotiate a new understanding in the 21st century.
Our tagline is 'Curiosity and Conviction at the Scale of Civilisation.'
We look at the world with curiosity and conviction at the scale of civilisation: our conviction is that, in an uncertain world, certain truths remain unchanged; our curiosity is in exploring how these truths persist into our present and future.
Our values can and should inform discussions of contemporary and historical affairs, global and local, with curiosity and conviction. But they can only do so once articulated in a familiar manner. Every generation bears the burden of rephrasing age-old truths in the novel concepts, issues, and language of its time.
Our objective is to restate these truths in the language of our time.
Kasurian publishes issues on a seasonal basis, during which you can expect an essay in your inbox every Sunday.
We welcome readers and writers from all backgrounds to join us.
