About the Journal

Paraguaçu: Journal of Linguistic and Literary Studies is an electronic journal from the Bachelor's Degree in Language and Literature at the Federal University of Recôncavo da Bahia, Brazil. It publishes two issues per year and welcomes original articles, reviews, and interviews in the fields of Linguistic and Literary Studies, embracing the thematic, epistemological, and methodological diversity of research conducted in both areas. In Linguistic Studies, within the desired pluralism, the journal includes works on linguistic description and analysis, text/discourse, language, cultures, identities, language teaching and learning, and teacher education in languages, among others that address language(s). In Literary Studies, the journal covers theoretical and critical studies that explore relational aspects between different forms of literature and their interface with other discourses, such as those of the human and social sciences, as well as with other artistic productions of the time, revealing and problematizing their cultural and identity markers. With this focus and scope, the journal aims to disseminate and foster critical reflection on languages in their multiple uses, practices, and functions, which, oscillating between stability and instability in systemic and discursive dimensions, exist within a continuous interplay of cohesive and dispersive forces of forms and meanings.
