CONTINENTAL GERMANIC LANGUAGES, LITERATURES AND CULTURES IN CONTRAST AND FROM DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES

Roczniki Humanistyczne 73 (2025), Fascicle 5: Modern Languages

Roczniki Humanistyczne is a double-blind peer-reviewed international journal (i.a. SCOPUS, WoS, ERIH PLUS, CEEOL) that since 1949 has established a solid tradition as a philological academic journal. For the upcoming issue of Roczniki Humanistyczne, volume 73 (2025), series 5 Modern Languages, we invite colleagues to submit contributions highlighting different aspects of Continental Germanic languages, literatures and cultures, especially German and Dutch, from a diverse perspective.

Here, we consider both recent themes (e.g. dealing with AI, language change, digital literature), as well as topics anchored in the past (e.g. historical linguistics, literatures from the Dutch Golden Age, Polish-German and Polish-Dutch/Flemish relations through the centuries). Articles highlighting relations between Continental Germanic languages, literatures and cultures with Western Slavic ones are particularly welcomed. Contributions should be written in German, Dutch or English.

The editors of Roczniki Humanistyczne, fascicle 5 Modern Languages would therefore like to invite you to take part in linguistic, literary and culturological reflections based on a comparation of themes concerning German, Dutch (including its Flemish and Surinam variants) and Frisian languages and literatures on the opposing of its counterparts in Polish, Czech, Slovak and Lusatian.

In order to compile a thematically coherent issue, interested parties are invited to submit an abstract in advance. These abstracts (in English, max. 1000 characters i.e. 160 words with spaces) should contain the following information:

• author(s) with affiliation(s)
• title and text of the proposal
• selected bibliography with 3-5 academic references
• 5 keywords

The abstracts should be addressed to the editor, prof. dr hab. Wilken Engelbrecht (wilken.engelbrecht@kul.pl) or to the secretary, dr hab. Anna Rutka, prof. KUL (anna.rutka@kul.pl). Deadline for submissions of abstracts is 30 June 2024.
