SOUTH ASIAN REVIEW, the refereed journal of the South Asian Literary
Association, invites submissions for 2007 issue, vol. 28, number 2, the
Miscellany (Oct/Nov). SAR is a representative scholarly forum for the
examination of South Asian languages and literatures in a broad cultural
context. The journal invites healthy and constructive dialog on issues
pertaining to South Asia but the thrust of the dialog must be literature
and the sister arts. The journal welcomes critical and analytical essays
on any aspect or period of South Asian literature (ancient,
pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial). SAR is open to all ideas,
positions, critical, and theoretical approaches. Recognizing the
linguistic and cultural diversity of the subcontinent, the journal
particularly welcomes essays in intercultural, comparative and
interdisciplinary studies in the humanities. The journal is also
interested in essays on music, painting, sculpture, architecture and
other related fields. The following areas are of special interest to the
journal:
