Studia Neophilologica

Aims & Scope

Founded in 1928 by R.E.

Zachrisson, Studia Neophilologica publishes articles on English, German and Romance languages and literatures, from the Middle Ages to the present day, as well as reviews of new books in these fields.

The contributions represent both historically oriented research and synchronic studies.

Many articles are addressed to methodological and theoretical questions within the fields of general linguistics and literary study.

The majority of the contributions, however, investigate specific linguistic problems or analyze specific literary texts.

The journal thus covers a wide and diversified field in its aim to mirror the issues and research questions that concern today’s researchers in the fields of English, German and Romance studies.

The journal can count among its contributors a large number of distinguished scholars from many different countries and continues to invite contributions from scholars the world over.

Articles may be submitted in English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian.
