Aims and Scope
ROSSICA. Literary Contacts & Connections is focusing on the study of Russian-foreign literary connections, contacts, transnational literary influence and exchange. The journal’s priority is classical academic research in literary history: reconstruction of personal and institutional literary contacts, publishing policy, translation studies, comparative literary studies, reception of Russian literature abroad and world literature in Russia / USSR, etc. The journal aims to publish new materials: archival documents, literary texts, epistolary, diaries, documents as addenda to academic articles.
