This series of the Review welcomes papers on linguistics and literature studies. However, according to the policy of the Editorial Board, we neither accept nor review papers dealing with the following areas: the study of “concepts” and proverbs, language/literature teaching methodology, analysis of secular or church mass media, analysis of speech of political figures. The editorial policy of St. Tikhon’s University Review. Series III: Philology gives priority to those papers which deal with clearly formulated problems. Papers that make outlines and give descriptions without carrying out a study of a clearly stated research problem are unwelcome. A sine qua non requirement for considering a paper is the author’s sufficient familiarity with current literature on his/her topic, which should be reflected in references. On the other hand, we do not consider papers that are mere compilations of foreign studies or papers that only provide an account of the present-day state of the problem without achieving the level of an original academic study. Papers that do not comply with the academic genre, i.e. contain features of essayism, look like prefaces and introductions, deal with many problems and issues simultaneously, are neither considered nor reviewed. The following materials are not accepted either: oral presentations or reports which are not designed as an academic paper; materials that had already been published, including in the Internet, in other languages, or fragmentarily; materials not following the Editorial Style; pseudo-academic materials.
