In this Issue
The Modern Language Review, an English-language quarterly journal appearing continuously since 1905, publishes articles and book reviews on modern and medieval European languages, literatures, and cultures around the globe where European languages are spoken. The journal welcomes scholarship that takes a global or comparative approach as well as articles that appeal to a broad cross-section of scholars working on areas including, but not limited to, literature, the visual and performing arts, sociolinguistics, cultural history, and translation studies. All contributions are in English. The General Editor is Prof. Duncan Wheeler. We encourage submissions from scholars at all stages, including postgraduate researchers.
