Slovanský ústav AV ČR – Slavia
Details

Slavia, Journal for Slavic Philology
is the oldest international journal specialized in Slavic philology published in the Czech Republic. It was founded in 1921, and has been published nonstop except during World War II. In terms of its topics, the journal focuses on comparative study of Slavic languages and literatures from the synchronic and diachronic perspectives and on the history of Slavonic studies. It also provides room for excursions into non- Slavic languages and literatures (e.g. Balkan studies, Baltic studies, German studies, etc.) and, to some extent, also for cultural/historical, ethnological, and folkloric subjects. The individual studies are supplemented with abstracts and keywords in English, the texts themselves are published in all Slavic languages, English, German, and occasionally French and Italian. All articles undergo an anonymous peer review and editing procedure before publishing. They are sorted into several sections, one of them provides space for reviews of Czech and foreign scholarly books.
