In this Issue
Partial Answers is an international, peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary journal that focuses on the study of literature and the history of ideas. Partial Answers strives to explore ways in which literary texts can be perceived both as works of art and as testing grounds for ideas. The editors believe literary works participate in the history of ideas, whether understood as a continuous line of development, as a process of inheriting and correcting schemas, or as a sequence of archeological layers. Partial Answers publishes articles on various national literatures including Anglophone, Hebrew, Yiddish, German, Russian, and predominately English literature.
