Guidelines for Submission

Interpretations aims to publish innovative and exemplary scholarship from all areas of literary studies. The journal 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. As an interdisciplinary journal Interpretations gives priority to research papers that address issues of literary studies which go beyond the given discipline. Interpretations 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.

The submitted article must be based on original research or must offer sound theoretical base; it must be written in clear and concise style in English and it should not be under consideration elsewhere.

All submitted manuscripts must be accompanied by an abstract (of not more than 300 words) and a Declaration by the Author.
