The mission of the periodical | Szlavisztikai Intézet

Slavica, a mulitilingual periodical issued by the University of Debrecen and its predecessor, has been published since 1961. It comes out annually in the third quarter of every year in three European languages: Russian, English and German. It contains articles and studies in three sections (linguistics, literary studies, cultural studies), together with a block of reviews, all of which cover the Slavic linguistic and cultural area. It is also its aim to connect different generations of scholars who may be geographically distant from each other but are engaged in similar fields of research. Some of the main topics of its profile are the historical study of Slavic languages, trends observable in the development of modern Russian, classic and modern literature of the Slavic nations, research into philosophical aspects of culture. The critical overview, analysis and comparative presentation of outstanding achievements in the areas listed above is considered to be one of its most important tasks.
Apart from their appearance in printed form, the issues of Slavica will be made freely available in PDF format on the OSJ 3.0 journal-editing template.
