About the Journal
The International Journal of English, Hindi, and Urdu Studies (IJEHUS) is an academic double blind journal dedicated to the study, interpretation, and critical exploration of literature written in English, Hindi, and Urdu. The journal aims to provide a common scholarly platform for researchers, academicians, and literary scholars interested in the diverse literary traditions, cultural contexts, and intellectual histories represented through these three languages.
The journal welcomes original and research-based articles that engage with English, Hindi, and Urdu literature from classical to contemporary periods. It encourages interdisciplinary and comparative approaches that examine literature in relation to society, culture, history, language, identity, philosophy, politics, and other fields of the humanities. Particular emphasis is placed on studies that bring different literary traditions into dialogue and contribute to a deeper understanding of similarities, differences, influences, and cultural exchanges among English, Hindi, and Urdu literary traditions.
The journal considers scholarly contributions on poetry, fiction, drama, novels, short stories, literary criticism, comparative literature, translation studies, cultural studies, postcolonial literature, world literature, linguistics and literary language, folklore, and emerging literary forms. Research on authors, literary movements, genres, themes, narrative practices, and changing representations of society is also encouraged.
The journal particularly welcomes comparative and interdisciplinary research that connects English, Hindi, and Urdu literary texts and explores how literature responds to changing social, cultural, historical, and intellectual environments. Studies may focus on individual languages or examine two or more of the three literary traditions comparatively.
The International Journal of English, Hindi, and Urdu Studies seeks to promote rigorous, original, and ethically conducted research while encouraging meaningful academic dialogue across linguistic and cultural boundaries. Through its multilingual and comparative orientation, the journal aims to contribute to the wider field of literary studies and to provide greater scholarly visibility to the rich and interconnected literary traditions of English, Hindi, and Urdu.
