Scope/Description:

The journal was created in 2002 in order to offer a forum for Nordic scholars in English language and literature and to promote the field of English studies in the Nordic countries. It is affiliated to the Nordic Association of English Studies NAES. Starting from 2007 the journal is open access and only published electronically. Two or three issues of the journal are published each year. The publications are both general issues and special theme issues with guest editors. We warmly invite prospective inquiries about special issues. We are particularly interested in topics that place different areas of English studies e.g. linguistics literature teaching and learning in dialogue. While scholars based in institutions outside the Nordic countries are welcome to submit proposals for special issues we expect at least one contribution to be from a scholar at a Nordic institution. The general issues serve as a venue for original research in the fields of English studies including language literature culture and the teaching and learning of English. For our general issues we invite submissions from scholars with an affiliation to a Nordic institution. We also publish conference proceedings and festschrifts to honour a Nordic colleague if they can be subsumed under a special theme. The journal also publishes reviews of books thought to be of interest to our readers.The policy of the journal is also to provide a possibility for early career or doctoral researchers to publish their articles on English language or literature in a peerreviewed journal along with more established scholars.
