Periodicals
- Bohemistyka [Bohemistics]
‘There are plenty of magazines in the field of politics, literature, especially the comely one – lots of weekly and monthly magazines; different professions have their own professional magazines. Only the language – this instrument of all, needed by all and unfortunately not equally valued by all, many a times treated badly and unjustly – is not able to speak for itself and has nowhere to complain’, such words were written in 1901 in the first issue of ‘Language Aids’. And it happened as the editors of the ‘Aids’ wanted, this ‘small monthly magazine’ filled and is still filling this missing gap in the field of linguistics for 100 years now.
Like the editors of the ‘Language Aids’, today Polish bohemists are convinced that in Poland we lack the magazine which would aim at discussions over the issues of bohemistics which are being worked on not only in Czech Republic but also abroad. Beginning publishing the new Slavic magazine, despite the unfavorable conditions, I am utterly convinced that I am fulfilling the needs of all interested in the subject. The new magazine is called ‘Bohemistics’, and is being published by the Institute Of Slavic Philologie in Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. This periodical will come out four times a year.
What will ‘Bohemistics’ be? Most of all it will be a complete and reliable set of information and, as I hope, an effective help for all bohemists, primarily in Poland. For this purpose it will be a means of exchange of thoughts, doubts, and also experience, a means which will make all the readers familiar with what has been done so far, inform about all conferences that are being organized etc. Hopefully it will be the best possible media of bohemistic thought and information. The paradigm of ‘Bohemistics’ were magazines like ‘Naše řeč’ (‘Our Matter’), ‘Česká literatura’ (‘Czech Literature’) and ‘Český jazyk a literatura’ (‘Czech Literature and Language’), from which I have also taken the magazine’s structure and its format.
Aiming at bringing together the research workers and all that sympathize with the subject, like also all that are interested in bohemistics, the magazine will consist of – apart from the scientific – the review and the report sections. That is why I have decided to focus on this three main sections:
1. Scientific section, with information on current scientific-research output in the field of bohemistics, and with articles on Czech literary studies and linguistics, together with comparative works.
2. Review and report section with information concerning books on bohemistics that appear on the Czech, Polish and world market. It will surely help the readers with being up-to-date with all novelties. For this purpose we will also supplement the magazine with critical review of what is going on in the publishing market, the reviews of the novelties and reports on scientific researches.
3. Annalistic section in which I would like to include complete and useful information concerning bohemistic centers in the world, jubilees of Czech and world bohemists, scientific conferences devoted to the issues of Czech literature and language etc. This section will also run the reports from conferences, articles on anniversaries and jubilees of Polish and world bohemists, and also reports on bohemistic institutions and organizations all over the world.
Whether this aims be realized or not does not depend solely on me or the editorial staff. We should all join in editing of ‘Bohemistics’, so the issue may be popularized properly. The value of this periodical will depend also on our harmonious and well planned cooperation. That is why I ask all of you not to be the readers only, but to become co-authors. I do not mean to impose the form of this cooperation on anyone. Each and every comment, an article, a review, a report, any kind of information will be of great importance and meaning to the nature of the magazine. Thanks to your cooperation it will not be just a still print, but a living word, that will build a bridge between bohemists and bohemistic centers in Czech Republic and abroad. ‘Bohemistics’ is open to all of you who wish to cooperate with us.

- Forum Poetyki [Forum of Poetics]
"Forum of Poetics" is a bilingual (Polish and English) philological quarterly, published in digital form and dealing with contemporary problems of poetics. The purpose of the journal is to generate systematic and multifaceted thought on the transformations of poetics that have resulted from changes in philology and the humanities. In each of the thematically organized issues of „Forum of Poetics” there will be articles grouped in regular departments. The main, theoretical department will offer general perspectives on matters of poetics today. The translation department is tasked with developing knowledge on the newest poetics concepts from abroad. An important feature called “Poetics Dictionary” contains articles relating to contemporary perspectives and utterances on problems not yet assimilated by the lexicography of the discipline. The increasingly crucial importance of practices essential to knowledge production has necessitated the creation of a department of interpretation and praxis, in which certain formulas of poetics will be printed in the course of literary analyses. Beside the necessary survey and reviews of current works of poetics broadly understood, we are proposing an additional section called “Poetics Archive,” in which poetics concepts which have been somewhat or entirely forgotten will be presented anew, since we feel it is worth testing their capacity to inspire contemporary humanities thought.

Seria Literacka [Literary Series]

Contact: piotrsd@amu.edu.pl
Poznańskie Studia Polonistyczne. Seria Literacka is a semiyearly journal of literary scholarship. Each issue of the publication represents a monograph whose main contents are devoted to a particular problem chosen by the editorial staff. The interpretation section (“Confrontations”) is thematically independent from the main section; in it, we print texts relating to various periods and authors, presenting experimental studies by literary scholars. Another equally important section consists of critical essays (“Readings”). It features not so much reviews of scholarly books as penetrating reflections on and polemics with important publications in literary scholarship. A separate section in the journal (“Transfer”) is devoted to translations, whose importance for the dissemination of diverse scholarly approaches and theories of reading cannot be exaggerated. A special section of the publication is reserved for works concerned with archival and bibliographical questions (“Discoveries”); it presents ongoing projects of and discussions among literary scholars and announces the results of queries and other searches. For an intellectual dessert course, we propose more free-form essays (“Ventures”).

- Symbolae Philologorum Posnaniensium Graecae et Latinae
The journal Symbolae Philologorum Posnaniensium was founded in 1973 in the Department of Classical Philology at Adam Mickiewicz University, and conceived as a periodical journal intended primarily for classical philology scholars based in Poznań, but also welcoming scholarly contributions from other Polish philologists and researchers of Greek and Roman Antiquity from various disciplines. Prof. Jan Wikarjak was the founder of the journal and acted as Editor-in-chief of the first issues. The professors of classical philology associated with the Department of Classical Philology, Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań have acted as executive editors of the journal ever since. Although articles in the Polish language predominate, Symbolae has welcome articles in Western-European languages and Latin since the journal’s conception. We also have collaborated with scholars from international research institutes. All articles include abstracts and summaries in foreign languages. Only original and previously unpublished contributions are published. The journal is peer-reviewed.
