Trending and Emerging

There is a noticeable decline in papers that adhere strictly to traditional historical narratives without incorporating contemporary theoretical frameworks or interdisciplinary approaches. - Focus on Purely Literary Criticism:
The journal seems to be moving away from analyses that focus solely on literary criticism, favoring instead those that engage with broader cultural and socio-political contexts. - Minimal Engagement with 20th Century Literature:
The scope has shifted away from discussions of early 20th-century literature, indicating a waning interest in works that fall outside the primary focus on the 19th century. - Reduction of Biographical Studies:
