Declining or Waning
- Traditional Literary Canon:
There appears to be a waning interest in studies solely focused on the traditional literary canon without contemporary relevance or critical perspectives. Scholars are increasingly seeking to connect classical texts with modern cultural contexts. - Purely Descriptive Linguistics:
Research that is purely descriptive in nature, lacking critical or theoretical frameworks, has become less frequent. There is a shift towards more analytical and interpretative studies that address broader social implications. - Historical Studies without Contemporary Links:
