Rhesis - Linguistics and Philology publishes articles in all areas of functional linguistics with a methodological orientation towards empirical verification of theories. It welcomes linguistic studies applied to both classical and modern languages, and pays particular attention to research in the field of historical linguistics. It also accepts contributions of a philological nature that focus on textual and/or cultural issues. Rhesis - Literature publishes articles on classical and modern literatures from all over the world. We are particularly interested in critical editions of literary texts, intertextuality, and the theory and criticism of literary genres. We also welcome contributions on the interpretation of literary texts and the various cultural manifestations and expressions of literary studies and related disciplines.
