The newest journal of our faculty, the Pázmány Papers: Journal of Languages and Cultures begun its journey
Quote from the foreword by Dr. Nándor Máté Birher, Dean of the Faculty:
"The past year marked the 30th anniversary of the foundation of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at Pázmány Péter Catholic University, and we are proud to celebrate this occasion with a renewed commitment to strengthening our presence in all academic fields represented at the Faculty. With this intention, we have decided to launch a new journal, Pázmány Papers: Journal of Languages and Literatures, dedicated to the fields of literary studies and linguistics, to be published in English, to complement the Faculty’s already established selection of publications with a more internationally visible and accessible scholarly forum. With the help of this journal, we wish to create a platform for scholars from our own university and collaborating institutions both in Hungary and abroad, a platform where they can share their insights, questions and new discoveries, contributing to the ever-evolving landscape of the humanities.
"This present inaugural issue of Pázmány Papers, with a thematic section aptly dedicated to the topic of “Hospitality”, already testifies to our intention to promote cross-cultural dialogue and the welcoming spirit of cooperation. Through rigorous peer review and a commitment to inclusivity, we endeavour to publish articles that not only contribute to existing knowledge but also ignite new debates and discussions within the field. In this way the journal can strive to uphold the highest standards of scholarly integrity, while also embracing the diversity of thought and innovation that is essential for the continued growth of these disciplines. We are confident that this journal will be a valuable resource for scholars, educators, and students alike, providing a platform for the dissemination of ground-breaking research and the enrichment of our collective understanding of the humanities. [...]"
The issue contains twenty-one papers and three reviews in four sections (Thematic Section, Essays by the members of the Hieronymus Translation Studies Research Group, General Section, Reviews).
From this year onwards, articles published in the journals of the Pontifical Franciscan University will be uploaded to the MTMT (the database of Hungarian scientific publications) after publication, through a so-called publisher registration.
