Meanwhile, literature subdisciplines covered by this journal include, but are not limited to, prosaic, poetic, and dramatic studies, as well as literary criticisms along with their subordinates. This journal is also open for publishing scientific works from interdisciplinary studies related to either language or literature subjects.
