Interpretations
(Annual Peer-Reviewed Journal of Literary Studies published from Sukanta College)

Call for Papers for Inaugural Issue

Interpretations (Annual Peer-Reviewed Journal of Literary Studies) is

currently seeking submission for its inaugural issue scheduled to be
published in July/August 2024. The first issue of the journal would be an
open issue and it welcomes articles in English on literature, discourse
studies on visual culture, historical, philosophical and socio-political
leanings of literature, theoretical aspects and other areas in literary studies
in its broader sense. Interpretations addresses itself to a holistic study,
analysis and understanding of literature, and the arts and culture, which is
not dissociated from life but an active response to it. The journal aims to
further an active and dynamic dialogue among scholars focussing on literary
studies from various disciplinary angles. Complying with its
interdisciplinary nature, Interpretations gives priority to research papers that
address issues of literary studies which go beyond the given discipline. The
journal would provide space for critical inquiries into various nuances of
mainstream English Literature, World Literatures in English, Translation
Studies, Bhasha Literatures, Literary Theories and Cultural Studies, Indian
Writings in English etc. We welcome well written research papers in English
from scholars around the globe for consideration for publication.
Interpretations does not publish fiction or poetry and at present it does not
seek book reviews.

Submissions should normally be between 4000 and 6000 words in length

including Endnotes and bibliographic material.

The inaugural issue is scheduled to be published (in print) in July/August
