This volume brings together a selection of pivotal articles published
in the hundred years since the launch of the journal Neophilologus.
Each article is accompanied by an up-to-date commentary written by
former and current editors of the journal. The commentaries position
the articles within the history of the journal in particular and
within the field of Modern Language Studies in general. As such, this
book not only outlines the history of a scholarly journal, but also
the history of an entire field. Over the course of its first one
hundred years, 1916 to 2016, Neophilologus: An International Journal
of Modern and Mediaeval Language and Literature has developed from a
modest quarterly set up by a group of young and ambitious Dutch
professors as a platform for their own publications to one of the
leading international journals in Modern Language Studies. Although
Neophilologus has remained broad in scope, multilingual and
multidisciplinary, it has witnessed dramatic changes in its
long-standing history: paradigm shifts, the rise and fall of literary
theories, methods and sub-disciplines, as has the field of Modern
Language Studies itself.
