Declining or Waning

While Interlitteraria continues to explore a wide range of literary themes, certain areas have shown a decline in focus over recent years, reflecting shifting interests in the field.
  1. Traditional National Literature:
    There appears to be a waning interest in traditional national literature themes, as the journal increasingly emphasizes transnational and multicultural perspectives over more localized literary analysis.
  2. Historical Literary Figures:
    The focus on specific historical literary figures is decreasing, suggesting a shift towards broader thematic explorations rather than detailed studies on individual authors.
  3. Conventional Literary Criticism:
    There has been a decline in conventional literary criticism that does not incorporate interdisciplinary or innovative approaches, with the journal favoring more dynamic and integrative frameworks.
