Trending and Emerging

There is a growing emphasis on the impact of social media on language and communication norms, particularly in relation to discrimination, linguistic variation, and the evolution of norms in digital contexts. - Posthumanism and Transhumanism in Literature:
Emerging themes related to posthumanism and transhumanism in literature signal a shift towards exploring the intersections of humanity, technology, and non-human agency, reflecting contemporary philosophical debates. - Gender Perspectives and Feminist Critique:
An increased focus on gender studies, including feminist critiques of literature and theater, highlights the journal's commitment to exploring diverse voices and perspectives in literary and cultural discourse. - Interdisciplinary Approaches to Linguistics:
There is a notable trend towards interdisciplinary research that combines linguistics with fields such as cognitive science, ecocriticism, and cultural studies, indicating a broadening of the journal's scope. - Translation in Global Contexts:
A rising interest in translation studies, particularly in the context of globalization and cultural exchange, suggests an expanding exploration of how translation shapes and is shaped by contemporary cultural dynamics.
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:
The focus on historical studies that do not engage with contemporary issues or debates is declining. Researchers are more inclined to explore historical contexts that resonate with current linguistic and literary discussions.
