Journal of Literary Theory
The Journal of Literary Theory invites contributions for volume 4 to appear in 2010:
CALL FOR PAPERS
The Journal of Literary Theory is an international forum for debate in literary theory. JLT takes an interdisciplinary approach and is open to a broad variety of theories and methods, promoting their study, research, and development.
JLT reaches out to disciplines dealing with theoretical foundations of the study of literature as well as to related fields of research such as linguistics, psychology, musicology, art theory, and film studies, insofar as these are concerned with the analysis or interpretation of aesthetic objects.
Above all, the journal aims to publish work on fundamental issues in methodology and the construction of theories and concepts, as well as articles on particular literary theories. Historical case studies are accepted only if they adopt a predominantly systematic perspective, contribute to the reconstruction of the history of literary theory, or pursue innovative methods.
Contributions are accepted in English or German and should not exceed 50,000 characters.
Articles can be sent in anytime to JLT@phil.uni-goettingen.de
Additionally, each issue of JLT includes a section on a selected special topic; coming up are:
-
Literary Studies & Linguistics; Manuscript deadline will be May 15th 2010.
-
Popular Culture; Manuscript deadline will be July 15th 2010.
Submissions are selected in a blind review process and accepted for publication by an international advisory board.
